| LOU HART - Drag Racing GASSERS | ||
|
One of drag racing's very popular classes formed was the Gassers. During the '50s, Model A and 1932-'34 Fords were considered the hot set-up for these gas classes. Using Ford V-8 flatheads and later overhead valve engines, Gas Coupe and Sedan classes had to maintain stock wheelbases and the engine relocation was limited. By the mid-60s, it was rare to find an upper classed gasser with any other body make than Willys, Studebaker, Austin or Anglia. They were the stoutest full-bodied cars on strips nationwide. Touring teams ran four to six times every week, often traveling several hundred miles day and night to make their next date. This was old school racing!
However, interest waned as fliptop funny cars
took over in popularity. The battles in A/GS (later AA/GS) ranks
created many heroes and villains who etched their marks into drag
racing history. Gassers shared with fans of the quarter mile one of
the most thrilling overall racecar types, and for an era that was
all too short, they were literally the Kings of the Sport. Enjoy
this photo book as it takes you back to that wonderful time. |
