    Les Mayhew's talents are a real gift to the Nostalgia Racing community. Every time he equals or surpasses his previous work... how good can it get?!!! Thanks, Les!

      Les is such a great guy! He is extremely smart and understands how the cars work. I was talking shop with him before I knew who he was and he impressed me very much with his diversity of racing knowledge.

    Damn I love these nostalgia races. There is nothing better. Almost makes you want to start crying you're so good. The good old days grassroots drag racing. I can't get enough of it and I'm 72 years old. Keep up the good work.

    If only Don Garlits' clutch hadn't let go back in 1970. Then again, if rear-engined dragsters had never come into being we might not think anything of these cars.

    Please excuse my ignorance, but are they running 1320 or 1000 feet? Thanks! I saw Garlits at Half Moon Bay way back!

    Why aren't TF drivers seated in front of the engines as before?. When did this practice change?

    • @maynecob
      @maynecob Рік тому

      For the most part, Front-engine dragsters pre-date rear-engine dragsters by decades. What is now known as Top Fuel used to be known as AA/FD. Rear engine dragsters became popular after 1971. In 1970, Don Garlits suffered a horrendous explosion at Lions Dragstrip (an iconic photo) and during his hospital recovery, he designed his next dragster with the engine behind the cockpit. Front-engine dragsters have seen a resurgence in popularity and race 1/4 mile or 1,320' and put on a great show for the fans.

    Best thing of all is that despite the engine "chingo a su madre" (flew to hell"), the guy is in one piece, safe and sound. Very impressive to got those pants burnt in a short term of time. I'll say it again, the very best is he's in one piece, safe and sound. Even the engine blown, it was hell of a race. Kudos and greetings from Mexico.
