This is supposedly the very first recorded auto racing accident

Don Garlits sets record in Electric dragster. I have a soft spot for Garlits. He came to town in the 1970's and had hurt his exhibition engine and came to the shop I was working in and had me weld the head and put a couple of seats in it and then we did a valve job on it for him. He then took us to lunch where we had a nice2 hour talk with him. Nice guy.

At the NASRA Spring National Scooter Races last weekend, a gentleman showed up in Shelby NC all the way from Florida. He had painstakingly adapted this electric motor to his Yamaha Vino... I think he had the fastest ET's out of everyone there!

Went to the Home Depot and this was in the parking lot. Sorry the one is blurry but you get the idea

Gordon,
I found another video of Garlits in his electric dragster

Very silent ... I think that new technologies are sacrificing emotion, example the new formula 1, which no longer hear the beautiful sound of the V-8 and V-10.
