Posting some old race video from years ago...(update: more videos added)

I finally got around to burning some of my old race VHS tapes to DVD's & though I would post some stuff.

My heavy beat up rust bucket '70 Ranchero with a decent nitrous Cleveland around 1989. Back then doing a bunch of dry-hops after the burnout was all part of the fun.....

My '69 Mustang about 1990 with a weak no compression mismatched "junk pile" Cleveland made from leftover parts from past "blowed-up" stuff.......

Two guys I know both ran almost identical 67-68 black Mustangs years ago, both with Clevelands & 4speeds. Back then in their fight to get to the low 6's first, there was this small nitrous ka-boom. The track announcer back then was one funny guy. He always had fun poking fun at some racers & having a few tasty beers up in the tower......

Thanks Dave,Thats some of the best i've seen for awhile. But,I have too ask this question,is there a Ban against paint in Texas? And that was Lem Evans doing the announcing,right Just kidding,yea,back in the day the dry hop's were . Thanks for posting,if you have anymore,please post.

That was cool Dave,. Thanks.
BTW, what did your ranchero weigh then??

Al

Cool stuff Dave!!! If I was a young man ,I'd head to Texas with my paint gun and get Rich

COOL!!

I remember taking my 70 Maverick to Kennedale back in the late 90's when it was still considered pretty fast. I ran the No-E class. I think it was running 7.30-7.31 back then with a stock block, stock crank, motorsport rods and dome pistons with some cheap ole Edelbrock heads. Nothing special but fun.


Oh, I never did dry hops and I didn't have paint either (primer gray)!!

HELL YEAH !!!!! cool stuff Dave

What did the Chero run ? Look like it had some traction issues and was real torquey.

Very Cool. Love the 69

Them dry hops, used to be rough on the small u-joints back in the day.

Cool videos. ET's for both please. The ranchero had plenty of wheel speed for sure.

Those are cool old videos. Did I count five ambers?
