Re: Drag Racers, Why do we race ?
I race to see how fast I can make something that I built go. Since I don't get to go often,I forget about making the finish line stuff, and don't lift.. I have my fun with my slow car. Now, concerning the "B" word, I worked for ChrisCraft, building their house boats and the boats that were in the first seasons of Miami Vice. That was cool, seeing what I worked on on t.v.I would love to know if they still exist.Racecars are alot less work unless wadded up, you can always walk if they quit running, and they usually don't sink.John Kissel K242

I tried the boat deal a few years ago. It was fun for about 30 minutes. Not very exciting.

Re: Drag Racers, Why do we race ?
Raced boats after I stopped drag racing in the
80s. I quit after severing my left foot and spending a couple years in a wheelchair and then a walker. There is a reasonable amount of danger in Drag Racing (Particular for the Trees when I am on the line). I found that level much higher in the Race Boats and NOT acceptable to me (Single Parent with two young boys). |
Re: Drag Racers, Why do we race ?
I've been doing this stuff for most of my life ! From the start in 1957, until this year, now racing my street car ! From E.T. car, to Super Stock Hemi ! Now my street car a 2011 Hemi challenger SRT392, w/auto, and street slicks ! Drive to track, at Union Grove, WI ! Have a great time as my age is getting to the point of amazement at an old Geezer ( 80 years old ) going down the track ! Having as much fun as years ago, or possibly more in my own little world !....John Lang Sheboygan, Wi !.
