Check the smiling crowd watching Moroso's car. That's when drag racing was fun to watch and be involved in. Every car had it's own personality.

Cary Menard is announcing most of Round 1, and he's just great on the ears.
The audio is pretty awesome here, good enough to get Kubrick awards someday!
I hope you diehards enjoy this.

Awesome video Don

While searching for a photo of another car I stumbled onto this photograph of the Engels Corvette in the staging lanes.

I don't know if Terry Sherrill was mentioned earlier in this thread, but he was so much fun to watch, I thought I would post a pic of his A/MP corvette.


It was a car that as a kid I ran to the starting line to watch.

Interesting side note, this car is being reassembled by a group of his old friends. It is being put back to its MP configuration and appears to be pretty close to its appearance back at that time. This was no small undertaking as the body looked like Humpty Dumpty after the crash, a million very small pieces of fiberglass had to be grafted back together.

Am not certain if this car qualifies an "old modified Corvette" but the Engels Corvette now has the NHRA permanent number assigned to Angelo DeCarlo.
