I have always loved gassers and fuel altereds (AA/FA).
And everytime I see Gastrick's "survived & won the gasser wars" tag line, I am reminded of some great memories over the years.
I have been lucky enough to meet and have a few beers with Doug "Cookie" Cook (Stone, Woods, and Cook) as I worked with his son Mike for awhile.
And my favorite drag car of all time is the Winged Express.
I ran into Al "Mousie" Marcellus at a John Force open house and talked with him for awhile. Mentioned this "event" to a good friend, Bruce Kelley, and he says, "heck, I know Mousie". Turns out Al only lives about 6 miles from me and the next thing I know I am in Al's house.
Bruce introduces us and hangs around for about 1/2 hour, then leaves.
Got to spend the rest of the afternoon BS'n with Al over lunch and just talking old times. Great memory.
Unfortunately, it turned out to be the last time I saw Bruce, as he passed away a couple of weeks later.
Anyway, here are some pictures of some gassers that I hope you all will enjoy. '22
