agreed it dont realy apply to the car guys so much but homebuilt innovative machinery is the norm rather than the exeption in the tf/st pits...they are the machining gods all of them i mentiond Karling cause standing on the bank watching that thing go 1000 ft on the wheelie bars and semingly firing every other fence post was for me as good as it gets
Kim Reymond for sure i watched that run. it was the run as stated Anita and Urs because they had the balls (sorry Anita) to put their own money down and run their own cars in a very uncirtain finantial climate...yes there have been and are others ..Andy carter because he had the drive to go at it for years and did well consistantly
how far back in time do you want to go??
