\"\"<\/a>28 June 2017 Kent, WA – After a weekend of record-heat the mid-week bike and diesel drags basked in cloudy skies and very comfortable temperatures. Along with the two regular Wednesday series running tonight, the test and tune lanes saw quite a mix of street cars and some true race cars out to test and earn a competition license.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>One of those out for the process of getting a competition license was a guy named Gary. Two years of hard work with near five more just putting around on his 1970 Duster. It runs on pump gas and uses a footbrake to launch, it also has no side windows and drives on the streets. This is where the description of the car takes a turn as it is modeled after the very early \u201cfunny cars\u201d. No lift-up body here, it has \u201cdoors\u201d on both sides and they are all metal though the guts have been removed for weight.<\/p>\n

The car is fully caged as per NHRA rules with a motor that fits the era. He set out to bring about a \u201cstreet\u201d car with all the looks of \u201cold\u201d school that he could safely motor around the hi-ways enjoying his project.<\/p>\n

He plans on running it on the track though at this point the class is unknown but with his good friend Randy Parker there to help-out; no telling what class it will fall into.<\/p>\n

Good luck wherever you land and look forward to seeing it run again.<\/p>\n
