Bench racing about Top Fuel is a silly season activity I hadn't participated in much, of late. For some reason, this winter has had more than it's share of bumping into fans and former racers who want to talk the sport aspect of..the sport. While PR peeps grind out lowest common eliminator publicity, others of us tend to look at the Ron Smith's and D.A. Sanducci's of the sport..the Spokane factor, if you like.
Bottom line, if you and your friends spent quality time developing something in your own shop, it has more of an energy bond...a magical one..than store bought cookies, maaann.

I have been enjoying www.hemihunter.com for the above reason. There were a short handful of Eastern holdouts into the mid-'70's who would bring a rail to Englishtown any 'open' competition Sunday and solo, if nessesary, for the glory of winning Top. A throwback to what I refer to as the AAU days of our sport. Read and learn.
