Hey everyone! Welcome back to Friday Night Drags. I'm feeling pretty up today so I thought, why not some nose-up, wheelie action? So without further adieu, here's some height for your Friday night!

I always was a bigger fan of Firebirds over Camaros. This '69 doesn't disappoint.

This was always cool. Mid-mounted race HEMI in an early A-body. It's weird to see the headers poking out just in front of the slicks.

Why bring the nose up when you can bring it up and sideways? GMs are notorious for this.

I know this one is weak, but I've got to give Ford guys some love after bashing on them so hard in The Cutting Edge.

I want a Gremlin. That is all.

And just to screw with your mind, there's this thing.

In case you didn't get enough Gremlin, here's the thing in action!

Friday Night Drags 2/14/14

Hey guys! Welcome back for another installment of Friday night drags. This week we're celebrating Valentines Day with some shaggin' wagons! Enjoy!

I really like these early to mis 80s GM wagons. They're great for this kind of thing.

And for those of you who need a bit more room, I give you the blown Caprice with "wood" paneling included.

I'm a Mopar, gasser, and wagon fan. I like everything that is this picture.

More Mopar power with this '70 Town and Country.

This has twin parachutes. I gotta know what's under the hood! 

Ok, I know this ain't technically a wagon, but it's damn awesome. It stays.

The guys at /DRIVE show you any old wagon can be fun in the 1/4 mile.

Friday Night Drags 2/7/14

Hello friends! Welcome to Friday Night Drags gasser edition! Hope you enjoy them and they make a good start to your weekend.

I like these old Valiants from the early '60s. The motor in this is probably a 413 or 426 wedge, which is really cool

This 327 powered '64 Chevelle is awesome! I really dig the color and the headers that dump right behind the front wheels.

I have always wanted to make a '57 Ford gasser like this with a 427 side oiler.

Hard core Vette guys are are keeling over from what this guy did to this '67 convertible.

This '66 Dart is so highly modded that it's almost an early funny car. I always like seeing the Hilborn injection with velocity stacks. Something I own should have these.

Here's one for all the Two Lane Blacktop fans. The '55 gasser is by far the most popular and definitely one of my favorites.

Here's a 10 minute video of some great old vintage gassers in action. This guy's channel has a bunch of these videos. Go check out Drag Strip Riot on YouTube for more!

As always comment and follow us (Connor will make you cookies if you do!*). If you have a cool car, send us a picture. We'll post it and give you credit for it and maybe even do a full write up on it.

First FND!

Welcome all to our first Friday Night Drags! I have tons of pictures of classic drag cars, wheel standers, and vintage drag cars hurtling down the quarter mile. I hope you enjoy these. And who knows? Maybe I'll throw a video in as well.

I really want to know what that much boost feels like. Looking at it, I wonder if it's ever actually seen any track time.

I really dig oddball cars. This '62 Studebaker Lark gasser is wicked! I also like the camshaft hood prop.

Anything that can raise the front and spit fire like that is badass in my book.

This C1 vette looks great as a gasser. I'm surprised hard core Corvette guys haven't gone after this guy yet.

I have always wanted to do this to a Wrangler. I'm really curious as to what's going on under the hood.

This is so wild that I had to post it. I have a '70 parked in my driveway. Should I?

This is one fast Continental! I's another oddball and it's incredible how fast such a big car is.

That's all for today. Don't forget to comment and follow this blog. We really appreciate the views.
