    These nostalgic funny cars don't have 11,000 hp and go 330+ mph, but they are WAY badder looking than our current "cookie cutter" cars. These LOOK like hot rods!! The only thing (besides these) with as much "cool" factor are some of the Pro Mods. Great video!😎👍

    When I was a youngster 70’s and beginning of the 80’s, there weren’t any chicks that helped the funny cars/dragsters in reverse. I went all the time and it just wasn’t a thing…it gives females something to do at a drag strip. Back in the years I mentioned, there was only one female that drag raced (to my recollection) and that was Shirley “Cha Cha” Muldowney. I enjoyed meeting all those cool dudes… Don “The Snake” Prudhomme, Don Garlits, Mickey Thompson, Connie Kalitta and others. If you asked me to name a current driver, I would be lossteure as $hit! 👊🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

    Need a much closer examination of some of those ladies, for sure. Correct me if I'm wrong, but some of the races were 1/8 mile. Finishing at 3.8 sec and 160 on a fairly clean run does not equal a 1/4 mile.
