    So youve been asking yourself, Nostalgia funny car, that sounds like
    fun racing. I wonder HOW MANY ARE OUT THERE ????

    Well here is THE current list of Nostalgia AA/FC, This is the Nitro list,
    and does not include Blown Alcohol, or injected Nitro/Alky cars.

    NOW 83 Total,..and 73 of them ACTIVE,......WHOLLY MOLLY

    This is alot of funny cars for 2010 season,..be prepaired

    I believe the red is for , 2nd car, process of being sold, waiting on car name, or being repaired.

    As for BB/FC`S there are lots of them too but a list such as for the AA cars
    have not been put together as yet, but here are two of the main Associations
    BB/FC websites.

    Once you have a car count like that , now the cut-throat starts !!! Now you people who will do it for about nothing , just to get booked in...example: Nitro pm cars started at $3000+, after everbody and their brother thought they could do,it is down to $1500 or less...you will have a few of the big name people (ones that can bring the spectators in) getting their money for their performance (well deserved) and others, at half price,(fill-in's)going broke trying to get to that level...
    Been there, done that , still broke and still can't run with them...
    Now i'm alot older and wiser...

    Yea but the reality of the thing is if you sell yourself short, well then you wrote your own tombstone,.
    .besides, nobody makes any money drag racing, its all about the show, nostalgia floppers etc etc..
    .and also you will never see a car count as the one listed at one event EVER,..the most you will see anywhere
    is at Bakersfield 32 showed up and 29 ran down the track this year at
    the Cali Reunion, othere wise build it and have fun running it,.for peanuts or for the Glory..
    LONG LIVE NOSTALGIA FLOPPERS, AA/ BB/ A/ B/.....Rock On :cool:

    Took some pics tonight after mounting the body but I don't think my "level" of membership allows me to post on here? Once the "scheme" is established, you WILL see it!;)
