For the first time in about 15 years I had to miss the Oldies drags at Firebird. Fortunately Walt Skoczylas brought his new dragster over to represent the Inliners.

Also, check out the pictures from the race as there are a few inline powered Jalopy styled racers.

Walt, I thought you were going to take the engine out of the Bonneville car and put in the dragster.

Will probably do that as the class evolves. Right now we're trying to build up the car count in the class and I'm trying to show people that they can build a relatively inexpensive rail without a killer engine and go out and still have a lot of fun with it.

Plus the "Slanted" Slant 6 engine I have in the car has some people scratching their heads.
