Fuel altered was a fun class to watch back in the 60's with Wild Willy and all the other great cars. Short 90+ inch wheelbases created some spooky 1320 foot runs. I lived at SoCal strips (Lions, Irwindale, OCIR, Pomona and Fontana) in the 1964-69 period (until I got drafted!) and never tired of the AA/FA cars. My favorite was the big-block Chevy powered car of Mondello & Matsubara with Sush Matsubara behind the wheel.

@WizardOfChicamunga ~ Nice to hear from you. I've been off the PC for a month, hence the delay in responding to your note. I grew up in Norwalk and attended Santa Fe High in Santa Fe Springs, CA. I graduated in 1965 and then attended Cerritos Jr. College in Norwalk before I was eventually drafted in February of 1969. I put alot of time in at Irwindale Raceway.

This shit's too cool to film, it even distorts the camera while doing a burnout

Wow that engine sounded flat from 330 feet on!

@MrRonnieG I lived in Azusa those years also. Irwindale was a fav spot of mine. In '68 I worked at a machine shop just off the entrance to the strip (the alley way). Where'd you live and go to school. I went to Gladstone High, class of '68.

I think you'll find that that was Clive Michell driving his fuel altered at Santa Pod Raceway back in the late 80s. I may be wrong with the date, it's a while since I worked on the cars there.

is that considered ''neck snapping torque?''

Nice, a dragster that actually fits in the garage.
