Slingshot Spectacular
The Front-Engine Dragster Era
by Steve Reyes
|
|
|
|
|
|
Out of drag racing’s early years came one style of drag
car that stood above the rest: the front-engine slingshot
dragster. The fearless drivers of yesteryear climbed in
behind 2,000-plus horsepower engines and held on for
a smoke-filled 1,320 feet, exciting fans with their
awesome power.
Among these awestruck fans was a young photographer
named Steve Reyes, and capturing these early four-
wheeled asphalt missiles was his passion. Like so many
fans, Steve got hooked on the smell of nitro and burning
rubber. He photographed this bygone style of dragsters
from 1963 to 1971, gathering great images and behind-
the-scenes stories along the way. Now you can follow
the history of the front-engine dragster in Slingshot
Spectacular: The Front-Engine Dragster Era, with over
350 vintage photos and personal stories to help you
smell the nitro and feel the horsepower of the good old
days of front-engine, top-fuel racing.

Factory Lightweights: Detroit's Drag Racing Specials of the '60s
Among racers it has never been a secret that a lighter car is a faster
car—particularly in drag racing. When Detroit’s automakers got

issuing a series of rare race-only cars that became legends in their
own time. Factory Lightweights: Detroit’s Drag Racing Specials of the
‘60s chronicles these rare cars that still inspire admirers and imitators
today, like the Ford Fairlane 427 Thunderbolt.
