Re: BIG still reaching for records!
I am NOT an electric vehicle enthusiast, but that dragster is beautiful.
Just for the record, BIG will be 93 on January 14, 2025. Just about a month away. Way to go BIG.

Re: BIG still reaching for records!
Don Garlits is a racer and innovator. This isn't an electric vs internal combustion debate. At 90 years old, Big never stops. He has done enough in his lifetime than most can only dream of and he keeps on going. A racer will drive and race anything. I am guiltier than most as it not only has to SOUND beautiful, but look even better and there better be a cool factor involved also. For most of the S/C, S/G, 4, 6 and 10 cylinder and yes even electric vehicle racers, I applaud you. You guys are real racers.
And for Big Daddy Don Garlits, I hope at 93 to be doing anything, let alone attempting to break records in whatever platform, You ARE an inspiration!! |
