  • We visit Shady Side Dragway for the old skool throwback 1960's era correct heads-up drag racing SEGA 2023 Championship Finals! Tighten your belt, dump the clutch, grab some gears, some beers and hang on for this one folks!! SEGA says: "The cars must represent a 1967 era appearance, both on and off the track. These rules will apply to the body, wheels/tires, chassis/suspension, interior and the engine compartment. All lettering must be paint, a foot operated clutch and 4-speed transmissions. No automatics".
    #dragracing #gasser #vintage
    Some of the rules include:
    Rules have been set in place in order to control the appearance of participating cars. We are striving for the look of a 1967 era drag car. The cars must represent a 1967 era appearance, both on and off the track. These rules will apply to the body, wheels/tires, chassis/suspension, interior and the engine compartment. In order to run with the Southeast Gassers, at a Southeast Gassers booked event, your car must be approved through the group.

      The backup gals, often referred to as "bugs" and are a period correct part of the show. Here's what the SEGA association says:
      DRESS ATTIRE:
      All Sega Races are family events, and we need to ensure that while the BUG is an important feature of 1967 Style Drag Racing the presence of Beautiful Ladies should enhance the car, not overpower it.
      Some Suggestions:
      Mod/Micro Mini/ Shift Dresses and Tunic Dresses and if you opt for any of these dresses Hot Pants/Volleyball Shorts/Bloomers {Whatever else they could be called} Must be Worn Please!!! Why is this being said is because there should be a certain amount of modesty involved, such as planning for weather related situations, especially wind or the track blowers will blowup that dress quicker than you can hold it down. Also please just be aware of how short your dress is, and your butt cheeks could be seen without you even realizing it until it shows up on social media and we know 99.9 percent of you Beautiful Ladies don’t want that and we as a family organization don’t want either.

    This is a great video brought back some good memories with my 1969 ford fairlane coupe(not to be mistaken for a Torino body style)had the 428 super cobra jet engine/drag pack 430 rear end/close range 4 speed trans.only had top end 110mph in 10.3 sec. ➕️ run only a few factory built W/Cobra badges on the grill 2 on ea.front fender and trunk lid and 428 super cobra jet on hood scoope and there was more about this factory built race car but at 73 my memory isn't as great anymore. 🤔131 DragWay Martin Mi. Is where it was run mostly.and this video would of been better without the camera men out of the way.😊

      Thanks for your interest and great story! Yea, the fence is now a problem. I won't go back without some sort of camera boom arm to get over the fence and line of media it attracts. Everyone had the same problem and many are clueless I was panning every run. Ton of fun to be there tho!!

      What's the "i" stands for? And Is it just old name for NHRA?

    • @classicperformance
      @classicperformance  6 місяців тому

      IHRA is the International Hot Rod Association; NHRA is the National Hot Rod Association. NHRA is ostensibly a not-for-profit corporation headquartered in Glendora, CA; IHRA is currently owned by IRG Sports & Entertainment headquartered in West Palm Beach, FL.
      Both have member tracks and run sportsman and professional drag racing categories. The biggest difference is size and scope as well as classes. NHRA is much larger in terms of revenue, tracks, competitors, and spectators. IHRA, true to their name has major events in the USA, Canada, and now Australia. The sportsman classes are pretty similar in each - there’s a lot of overlap between a Super Stocker in either sanctioning body or even a Hot Rod/Street Rod index class car. NHRA has Competition Eliminator and Top Alcohol Dragster and Top Alcohol Funny Car; IHRA doesn’t.
      There’s more differences in professional categories:
      NHRA: Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock, Pro Stock Bike, Pro Modified
      IHRA: Nitro Funny Car (aka nostalgia), Pro Stock, Pro Modified, Nitro Bikes

      @classicperformance  6 місяців тому

      Total deal breaker! We'll have to go back with a camera boom to get over it. It was unexpected and unfortunate. If anything, for better general sight, the fence should be black and not silver/galvanized which reflects sunlight. Nobody is thinking.

      Shadyside features an 1/8-mile drag strip (fully concrete prepped) with concrete barriers down the track and an Accutime system. There is 2,000 feet of shutdown area which runs uphill.

    You may not like the fence but without it you end up with a bunch of nitwits who think everyone is there to watch them stand around in their $400 sneakers two feet away from the cars trying to race. It’s bad enough that it’s only 1/8 mile racing but you end up with a bunch of people standing around in the way.
