Re: Fav Drag cars

Some of my favorites have been mentioned already, so I'll add some that are more obscure:
My father's '70 Logghe Chassis A/A 23T
Dale Armstrong's Sattelite "Alcoholic" BB/FC
Tom Trisch's '81 Indy winning candy red '23T AA/A (gasoline)
Bogg's Bros. "Poison" '23T AA/A ProComp car (would still be wild today, 30 years later)

Re: Fav Drag cars

Gordi Bonin's "Bubble-up" is far and away my favorite (see avatar). I'm a huge Bernstein fan as well and like all the Bud cars, but his nicest one was probably the "Chelsea King".

Re: Fav Drag cars

For whatever reason I love the Dr Moon's Rage Pro Mod cars. There my fav.
I also like Travis Swearingen's Rustic Pro Mod
I like most of Force's special paint scheme's
I liked Hillary Will's car as well, I wonder if it will be painted the same or not?
