Ya know I should have caught on the first time I went to an NHRA race at VMP, the pit crew started putting on gas masks, and the people who had been before started to clear away, I didn't. 10 minutes of my eyes watering and throat burning later I realized that you probably shouldnt hang around a top fuel dragster or funny car when they start it up, unless you have one of those gas masks...... :thumbup:

Ever watched those crew guys (who aren't wearing masks) do their final check of the car seconds before it goes down the track as the zoomie headers are billowing out huge amounts of nitro fumes? I can't even imagine.

What can I say? I have a boner for shaved bays and artful headers. The ITB's don't hurt either. I'd rock it till the wheels fell off.

Dawg, how could he have missed that? The brake master cylinder totally gives that away.

I'd be interested to know what engine that Z is sporting. The intake ports are on the wrong side to be an L-series motor, and his valve cover has a very abnormal profile. Radiator looks kinda funny too, appears that a lot of the core support has been cut out...

The car belongs to Rocky Auto. It has an rb30 with an rb26 head with 50 mm carbs. The body is 100% carbon fiber :bow:
