Why a FED or Nostalgia racing

Bill,
In first pic of first car is chute even connected?
I will say you had a set driving that thing.No way your head was anywhere near in safe postion with rollbar. Amazing when you look back at how unsafe some cars where that did not seem so then.

Looks like the shoulder straps dragging on the ground--- another plus

I'm 41, so I never saw a race at Lions. I missed the hay days of OCIR and the other So Cal tracks. But I've always been drawn to "Nostalgia Cars." For me they're cooler then todays modern cars. I don't care to watch super comp or super gas cars. Gassers, NE cars and the fuel cars just appeal to me.

Back then what we had was what we had ! That car had a 2 speed stick transmission ! I remember the first time we ran in the 9's with it I thought we were really flying ! Fun times !!!

I have said it before. An FED is the most fun you can have with your pants on. I have only made one run with my 05 spitzer 7.90 /173 . The ignition craped out and have not had the time to get back with the repair, work and weather. Car ran that 7.90 with what sounded like it was on the chip from half track. Still the ride was worth it.
