Here are some drag car pictures from the same event. The "Shake Rattle & Run" 57 Bel Air is powered by a 632 with a bunch of nitrous. It runs high 6's at over 200 mph. This car has been a race car most of it's life. It was raced as a gasser in the 60's and early 70's. The first time I saw it was at the Super Chevy Sunday in Indy in the early 80's. By that time it had a full tube frame and was powered by an injected big block on nitrous and ran in the 8's. It was updated to the current configuration in '07 or so.
