  • The Chicken Hawk Studebaker has gone to that dragstrip in the sky

    Ted Harbit has been running this car for over 45 years at Muncie Indiana and has won several national events with it. sadly, it will be no more:
    http://perfectrun.com/v-web/bulletin...ic.php?t=12240

    Harbit himself is in his 70's and still kicking. several minor injuries, broken scapula, slight puncture of the left lung, etc but they expect him back home in a week or so. amazing for how old he is.

    they were running the 1/8th only because they were getting wind gusts from 30-50mph. he blew the motor at the 1/8th mile stripe and rolled it all the way down the track into the timing sign at the 1/4 mile stripe. hit ~10ft up on the time sign. hell of a wreck but excellent safety equipment in his car.

      Todd shut up

      you really don't get this whole internet thing, do you? you want me shut up, you complain about my posts to the moderators and admins and they'll make the decision about whether or not i'm going to shut up.

      you want to shut me up in real life, you're welcome to try. considering you don't even have the balls to show up at the track i doubt that's ever going to happen.


      ps - why you are thread crapping on a story about a well-respected racer getting hurt and a piece of drag racing history being permanently destroyed, i have no idea. you like beating up on defenseless, bed-ridden old men or something?

      i would suggest that the mods delete both my post and buttplug's after 24hrs and any arguing that we need to have done can take place elsewhere.
