Modified Dolly/1500TC/V8 at Long Marston

#1 Post by Carledo »

I saw this a few weeks ago at the Hot Rod Nationals at Long Marston Dragstrip and posted it on "todays top spot" but it really belongs here now plus I thought Alan was getting lonely1
Personally i think we all need to give this new section more of a chance, it's only been up for a couple of weeks and not everyone has a camera phone and time for a photo op, even in the rare event of one presenting itself

I have seen that V8 locally to me several times over the last couple of decades. A black guy DRIVES it, really making the most of the torque, particularly dragging it up the Northbound on-slip at M5 Junction 2 a few years ago. Goes very well.
