    Great stuff! Looks like they used a Marlin fastback to graft on the back of the Dixie Twister Chevy. I thought the Ranchero was super rad, dug the T-Bird, the SC/Rambker, and so many others! Great to see the girls in mini skirts & go-go boots too!

    Love SEGA, they used to post their videos on UA-cam. They don't post very many any more. I live way too far away to come see them live. I watch all they post. It was tragic that Quain lost his wife Cindy especially since she had just bought "Flower Power."

      @toddwimberly3023 3 роки тому

      A/FX is still considered an exhibition class, we run solo passes at some events and pair up at others depending on the schedule, we did pair up in the finals with Robert Frazier in the Black and Blue Barracuda taking the win, we have 5 cars in the class right now with several in work, we should have more side by side races next season, thanks for the interest.

      They do. They typically will spray and drag the track early in the day. From then on out, it does not get sprayed unless there is an oil down or something like that.

      Sorry about that. My main purpose for being at the event was covering it for a magazine, so I had to jump around quite a bit from still photography to video, so I wasn't able to get a ton of video coverage.
