The biggest difference you will notice, is that the car you load up to go home with after a day of racing will usually look the same as when you got to the track with it.

Jason Im 49 and have a very similar background I race dirt modifieds most of my life there was no drag racing in my area growing up but several things happened to switch my interest as I got older most of my crew had kids and family interest ,my father passed away 7 years ago him and I did everything together and I have to admit the 7 day a week every night race all summer took its tole on my marriage. But a chance trip to a nostalgia drag event and meeting a few interesting people on line led me down this vintage FED road a few years ago and I have never looked back lot of great helpful people im from ny and now make the pilgramige to the west cost every year the California hot rod reunion is off the hook more front engine dragsters in one place anywhere on earth imgoing to the mach meet next week and have a friend racing there. Keep in touch if you building or buying a car I have made lots of contacts. I now have two cars and cant wait for this racing season. Good luck you are hooked again.

That FED on Ebay this week that is advertised with two bodies--One of our club members--killer car needs nothing but engine--Mr Beal--call him--it is a great car ready to rock--he is an older gentleman and his Ebay ad skills are not so hot but that car is a peach for the $$ He is super honest and has driven one of these ever since the start--will be very helpful.
I built my car from scratch--very rewarding but starting with a roller is lot quicker
These are the most fun you will ever have--Good Luck!
