Hi guys Larry Ricci, this is my first dragster, drag anything build I met a few cool guys in recent years and decided to build a vintage front engine dragster to do some nostalgia events with. Im a former eastern dirt modified racer for 25 years and a good buildrer and fabricator. Five years ago i lost my father to pancreatic cancer he and i worked together on race cars and motorcyles my entire life with him gone i just walked away from it all. In the last year and a half i have met some really cool people and it has ignited my desire to get back into the fold . I met and have become friends with Brian Darcy the comp driver ,met Ray Helger Helger bros racing ,Terry swampdonkey Knosic All FED guys. I had a large inventory of parts left over from 40 years of circle track racing and decided to build a car with what was in the shop. I contacted David Beard From dragster supply and david beard race cars to build the 4130 moly chassis david is a great guy to do buisness with and has become a great friendcheck out his web site . The car has some non conventional parts and is styled after a early 60's kent fuller car with a five point cage plan for a fuller car were given to me by Roger Riceman Lee and were used in the construction. I called and spoke to Roo man over a year ago what at great guy and super source for advice. I have been to a few nostalgia events and this sport is fantastic and most of all fun everyone is friendly and helpful. The car is now a roller and im currently working on the body it will have a chute tail body simular to the addict top fuel car all aluminium. Here are some build pics.
