birdsuper70 08-12-2008, 03:09 PM Back when funny cars,looked more like the street version than today funny cars,
hotrod98 08-12-2008, 03:36 PM I would always hang out with Jim in the trailer after the races back in the good old IHRA days. It was because of him that I bought my 69 Camaro Funny car back in 1975. I lost interest with the FC's when he died and switched to dragsters.
I still miss that guy.

Yeah I HATE the cookie cutter N o H ot R ods A llowed bs too. If there were no paint on the cars they would be unrecognizeable.
I love the Nostalgia events, that's all I go to and shoot.

Jim was "The Man"
hotrod98 08-12-2008, 05:36 PM I'm getting old...I meant to say AHRA instead of IHRA.
I enjoyed seeing one of Jim's cars at Garlits' museum a few years ago and now my old Dickie Harrell funnycar has been restored by Dick's daughter, Valerie and Dale Pulde. Can't wait to see it again.

I was reading that last thread two weeks ago. Simply amazing. I just can't over the fact that cat remembers all that shit.
hotwheelsjr 08-14-2008, 07:24 PM Those FC pics are AWESOME!!
GOT to LOVE the NEED for SPEED:old_school:
thebankerstoy 08-16-2008, 03:00 PM I'm getting to be a bit older now, so you young guns will have to forgive me, but drag racing in the 60's and 70's ROCKED! Brand loyality was EVERYTHING and even the Funny Cars still looked close to the muscle cars that everybody was driving to the track! :yes: Yes, the cars are faster today, but they just don't excite me like the cars in the 60's and 70's did.
