Hotrod Drags pics (http://mankymonkeymotors.co.uk/Photos/hotroddrags14.9.08/) Title: Re: NSRA HotRod Drags, 12th - 14th Sept 08 Post by: Manky Monkey on September 16, 2008, 02:18:46 AM My favourite car of the weekend. Co-built by the guy responsible for the current incarnation of "Rubellion". A Fordson van, roof chopped by 7 inches using the top corners from a black taxi cab roof, with a home built pick up bed -the young owner's first attempt at bead rolling. A Volvo engine I think. Really hope the write-up on this one arrives as promised.

Title: Re: NSRA HotRod Drags, 12th - 14th Sept 08 Post by: Manky Monkey on September 16, 2008, 02:33:37 AM One of the best meets I've been to.

My fave car. Love it. Title: Re: NSRA HotRod Drags, 12th - 14th Sept 08 Post by: panthershaun on September 16, 2008, 09:10:02 AM got admit that was my favourite as well ;D ;D though no good for me as I can't fit Bobcat in the back ::) have to say I think Hotrod shows are for me, love the atmosphere and the style of bikes that turn up are really what I'm into ;D ;D

I've been a biker since I was 17 & always loved bikes, but must admit, Taz & I find rod shows more fun than bike ones. Totally different atmosphere -no one's got anything to prove, they're all there just to have fun, no attitudes. I take a lot more "People Piccies" at car shows cos people are happy to chat -at bike shows they're too busy trying to look tough. Not ranting -just my opinion as someone involved in both scenes. Title: Re: NSRA HotRod Drags, 12th - 14th Sept 08 Post by: Manky Monkey on September 16, 2008, 11:25:37 PM Loved this little roof chopped Moggy Minor van. Subtle enough that you could almost walk past without noticing the work done.
Title: Re: NSRA HotRod Drags, 12th - 14th Sept 08 Post by: Manky Monkey on September 16, 2008, 11:28:29 PM Still my favourite -called "Truck Ugly". Not yet roadworthy so trailered to the event. Wasn't allowed to race because it didn't have a protective hoop around the propshaft, (to protect the driver should the prop give way under the stress of racing). Got lots of attention just cruising around the pits though.

Apparently. Title: Re: NSRA HotRod Drags, 12th - 14th Sept 08 Post by: Manky Monkey on September 19, 2008, 01:14:05 PM Write-ups now added to the photos.
