Thanks for the History lesson on M/C drag racing.
Anyone that dragraces should look at these pictures to know where we have come from and how far we have come.
Later DR JOE

The guy in the picture is Keith Parnell a good friend of mine here in the UK. He was the first Brit in the 8's back in 1975. He achieved that in front of 30,000 fans at Santa Pod. He is still drag racing today on his beloved 12. This year he ran a best of 9.7 (all motor) at age 64. He just recently bought a Muzzy 1270 kit for next year so kickin ass is still on his agenda.
Nuff respect
