I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

top fuel anything in person is a massive experience...I will never forget the feeling in my chest of a top fuel dragster going by while leaning on the wall at the 60foot point!

I just got back from Valdosta, GA where the Manufacturer's Cup is held.

There was some nasty Top Fuel bikes there.  Larry McBride and his bike, plus Per Bengtsson from Sweden and his 1700cc parallel twin Top Fueler as well as some others.

Definitely a sight and sound to check out up in person if you ever get the chance.

Later, Doug

Awesome! I've loved drag racing since I was a kid... pre Garlits (Swamp Rat) and Don Prudhomme (The Snake) days. I still dig the vintage front motored top fuel rails and the first "funnies" and the original Pro Stockers... there I go dating myself again! Wink
