Drag racers ? • The Dodge Challenger Message Board

Hi all.
Just re-joined after a long time away, I'm casually looking for some parts for the resto on my '74 and wondered if there was any Drag enthusiasts who frequent the site?

I have but dont do it anymore. I looked like I was wearing a sail from the CuttySark! :mrgreen:

Steve Case is a drag enthusiast that frequents from time too time. He's the UK gentleman that has a plum Crazy 70 with 383 and 2- 4's, hauls it in his Ram Truck too!. 72Orange is also a racer I think.

Hi Dave.
How are ya? keepin well I hope.

Drag Racing? the line on my head from the nicker elastic gives it away.

I know Hans, has he put the 4 speed back in? Steve Case I know the car, haven't seen it in the tin so to speak, 72 orange? sorry, I'm not sure I know.

Air fuel Eddie, I been reading your posts with interest as I'm wonderin weather to go Turbo's or centrifugal 'charger. Probably go blower and blow thru carb but rear mount turbos and EFI are a possibility. This is a while off in the future btw, as I'm still getting a handle on the 572 :wink:

Unfortunately those aren't on my calendar, I have a finite budget and have to pick and chose which ones I do.
However, I'm hoping to meet Hans at the Euro Finals in Sept. Steve, don't ya fancy Gary's picnic in June? It's usually a laid back affair and its part of that new class thats being run at 3 tracks.

Dave, l do fancy the Picnic, but i've been so busy with work, i've not even LOOKED at my car since last September! Had some problems with it back then, and just don't know when i'll be able to work on it as yet! :s006:
