Now THAT dragster shot is a killer photo. The depth of field is amazing. Makes you feel like you are right there. Unlike most shots taken with most of today's cell phone cameras!
Awesome content on this page guys!!

Observations about the above pic...
-I'm trying to figure out if that thing looks dangerous as he!! or fun as he!!
-I can't help but wonder how old that guy ever got to be.
-Photo was obviously taken in Ford country.

I always liked Eddie. The most dapper guy in drag racing. I never knew he ran Pontiac back in the day.

Thank you. Those adapter plates were probably made in the Die Room at Chevy Flint Manufacturing.

Eddie Hill is on another forum that I am on. We were communicating last October about what he is doing now, and he is heavily into road course racing and winning his share. He's also into Fords, as here is a picture of his latest buy a few weeks ago, a 2019 Ford GT. He's been waiting a while for this one.
