  • On a hot August afternoon, a group of modern day racers organized their period-correct Gassers together for a race at Greer Dragway in Greer, SC.
    Follow along with Pro Modified racer turned Gasser aficionado Quain Stott as eight of these classics stage the inaugural Nostalgia Gasser Race. Travel behind the scenes with the promoters and experience the sounds of these back-in-the-day doorslammers.
    This video, produced by Matthew Brammer, should make you a Gasser fan even if you weren't around in the 1960s to enjoy them the first time around . It's a 10 minute video but well worth the time.

    I can't say enough about how GREAT the show at Lyons Indiana was this past July. It was a racing experience to remember. I"m gonna travel to more now. I've been to the Nationals...and I'd rather go see this!!! It's outstanding the ENTIRE time. Not a dull moment at any point. Constant....car after car racing. The period correct gasser is King.

    WOW ... you guys have it down pat, the burnouts over the line, the multible dryhop starts, no 2-steps, 4-speeds.... I see a road trip in my future to drive over and watch. Top shelf job to all, keep it growing and going! Glenn

    Tip of the hat to Quain and all the racers, fans and track folk at Greer for doing this. Going to keep up with this during 2014' and if it works out, make the 3 plus hour drive and put a few more butts in the stands to help support this effort. Be good to watch some real racing instead of a bunch of 300 mph Corporate bill boards they call race cars. Thanks to everyone involved including Comp. Plus for the coverage.

    Please take this in the hopefully helpful way in which this was meant, not to piss of....only thing I didn't like were the little long on the people interview that action. I liked it because I do like it, keep it up. Take your picture to a fair th9is fall and maybe win something

    • @SwiftTaylorKill
      @SwiftTaylorKill 10 років тому

      It was suppose to help with weight transfer, and it looked mean lol

    • @bubub56
      @bubub56 10 років тому +1

    The very reason I have always favored the Gassers, 4 speed you have to drive these cars! Controversy hell no, no nitrous on any Gasser period! this is a drivers race car, not a cheap horsepower race!

  • @joelhuhtala4580
    @joelhuhtala4580 10 років тому

    The reason the front ends are raised up is to get more weight on the back tires. Wrinkle wall tires didnt come out til the late 60s so traction was always an issue. The more weight on the back , the more the car hooked up , the faster you went.
