What were some of the requirements to be listed in the "Gasser" class. I've never knew the qualifications. Rails and funny cars, sure, but what made it in the gasser circle?

[Boredout454]

@bonpL13fr Gassers were basically pre 1952 cars (mainly because they were cheap, lightweight, easy to find and had little 6 cylinders in them and were easy to get out and drop a bigblock Chrysler Hemi into it, which dont listen to guys today nearly everyone did) They had to run pump gas, no alcohol, no nitro etc. Hence the name Gassers

@techrat77 Where did this take place? I recognize the "Goin' Broke" gasser from western NY.

[techrat77]

@mrgears This was shot at Thompson Raceway Park at Thompson, Ohio. About halfway between Erie, PA and Cleveland, Ohio.

Nothing like watching a classic gasser launch.

Maybe not the biggest wheelies, but how can a guy not dig these guys.

[SixSpeedSS]

Awesome little clip.

[cepedio]

Sweeeeeet!!!

those V8 sounds like they come from hell!!!

[dynaflow74]

0:45 - the meanest V-8-sound I`ve ever heard. And just listen to the sound from 0:40 on - like a wild living beast.

[oldsgasser]

Nice!

[dynaflow74]

[hot318]

0:35 is my new inspiration.

[STEELSLINGA]
