yes, i remember reading articles in those days about it.one article was about a fuel altered with 3500 hp mcghee or mcgee and it run 5.70 s.fully approved!
The McGee did as expected and crapped itself. A great pity as those Australian made engines had plenty of potential. MGees made speedway engines and parts for Decades.
worst commentator ever.full of inaccuracies and terrible language.he s commenting with british accent and american`grammar`.he don t speak good!but cars are full of nostalgia and pure drag racing spirit.i saw my first nitro monsters 1993 in alastaro and that was ground shaking experience!i was partying in my big block 1964 ss malibu all friday night and in the early morning we switched to my mates 65 cadillac and headed to alastaro.oh those were the days.i was drinking moonshine my friend made and we called it race gas because of smell and color reminded us race gas used in high comp street racers.my malibu had only 10.5 comp so it ran on 95 octane pump stuff.car was good for 12 s which was decent for fully streetable car in those days.
Interesting to see professional drag racing in Europe
Hard to believe this is 30 years old
Thanks for the uploads! We can always count on you when stuck at home. Man, that announcer made some really laughable technical errors!
Clouds of steam ,no I think an airplane went by and pushed a cloud down!
And I was thinking that was tire smoke.

Cool stuff! Though I can't believe someone hacked up a rare '57 Chrysler 300 F. YiKeS.
Anyone can restore a car but it takes a swede to cut one up. :D And btw, ´57 was 300C, ´60 was 300F.
it was carbon fibre body.there was similar one here where i live.it was run in same class and i think they used same molds to make it.
No idea who the commentator was but he was no John price was he.
