WSID DRAGS Dec. Pics & Videos Part 2
« on: December 28, 2006, 08:59:46 PM »
For Part 1 CLICK ME

And now that I have found my way to another computer after seemingly killing my laptop (right after I edited all my WSID pics down and saved them onto said laptop ;30) here is my contribution.

Cam gave me a call late Tuesday morning saying he and Michelle were going to WSID.  So I dragged myself out of bed to check it out. ;41  It was worth the trip - although the $50
gate charge was a little on the expensive side. ;40

Some of my pics:




Sweet Camaro with a near on 700cube motor AND nitrous! ;41




Nice 'shoebox' Chev (I have a soft spot for 55-56 Chevs)






Junior Dragster - I want one of these with a big bike motor :grr




What happens when you can fabricate and have too many beers




There were bikes there as well




Mmmmm.  Hayabusa :spook




4wd will only get you so far...








Token Mustang photo




America vs Australia




Is it just me or is this a Camry? ;40




Sammut Motorsports making a pass




And on the return road






That nose looks like a TA to me... ;41




"Cute" little Austin?




Worlds Quickest Land Rover (I loved this thing ;41 )








Even Herman Munster was there




C4 Corvette




And they say the real Countach looks like a caricature... ;41




I'd hate their job






The big boys started to emerge later in the day






The tractor class was pretty thin




But quick




The "JoeBlo" Corvette






Clearing the smoke from the cabin




Checking the track for debris after each pass (for the faster cars)




No caption here




I LOVE flames :luv




Now this just is something you have to see in person once in your life






Wandering the pits










If you suffer from claustrophobia you need another hobby




But it works for some




Ben Gatt's Falcon




Biggest blower I've ever seen






Rebuilds in the pits






It got crowded as the day went on
