Greatest Topless Funny Car??

Postby Lionsdsisbest » Wed Jun 13, 2007 10:37 pm

What topless funny car could be called the best of all time. The years 1965 thru 1970 should the criteria. Names and answer later. There were so many.

You nailed it... looks fine to me. I'd say probably Conway? I really didn't track these guys that closely. What about the guys who qualified for Indy 69? Can't remember the team off the top of my head. it was a Vette. bp

Does this one count ?? Just kidding, this is what is left of our car after the 6.04 pass at Joliet Match Race Mania. I told John we should finish the edges off and run it top less.

That's a good question.I'd have to agree with BP,Conway's was probably the most consisantly good running one.When it wasn't burning,the Beach City cars that Gabelich and Foster drove were strong.For one-time great performances,the Garlits-Cook Dart was tough. Dennis Doubleday

Topless

I was lucky enough to see Garlits Dodge with Emery Cook driving, and at another track saw Marv Eldridge's car.
Also saw the Piranha run, does that count as a topless funny car?
