Need I say more?

It is cool. I'm partial to Tom Hanna's personal FED car. Or any race car I own(which I don't own any).

Nope, nothing more needs to be said!

A very cool digger. The best.

Here's another memorable view although the outcome wasn't favorable. http://www.draglist.com/photoimages/...0Hovsepian.jpg

I can remember building the model in junior high, way cool car! And the Smithsonian shot is classic!

The reason I talk to myself is that I'm the only one whose answers I accept.

Now that's a great shot right there! As for the Coolest Dragster of all time? I vote for Gary Ormsby's Streamliner from 1986.

When I saw the title, those were the only two that came to mind immediately. I think I'm slightly, only slightly, partial to Ormsby's too.

Can't argue with that.... I have a question for the "old school" guys..

What, if any, is the advantage of the "capped" or closed rear wheels and why aren't they used today?

Hmm...clicked on that link and thought I saw that pic somewhere before...(hint hint...look at my avatar!)

Love that pic. I like the tshirt he came out with that pic on the back, on the front it read "Garlits Rides and Attractions".

My vote is for the Swamp Rat...

But, it needs a wheelie bar and a monostrut.

my favorites of all time were the 301 c.i. unblown chevies jr. fuelers that ran on pure nitro back in the day-short little wheelbases and all. Here are some pics:

My second favorite was Wally Markett's Desoto C/D that was a national record holder in the early 60s.
