Yeah great shots.
The Liz and Ollie shot is the same sort of shot that I try and get these days.

Great shot of the Liz and Ollie car, Hustler Racing on fuel tank and Mark Stratton running alongside, I think I'm right in saying he built the chassis based on Skilton's Cavalier

Although not actual drag racing pics, thought I'd post a couple of pics I took of 'grass-roots' burnouts from UK 1/4 mile sprints.

The Morgan was at the VMCC Sprint Section event at Wroughton in June 2011. and the Vincent at the Brighton Speed Trials in 2007.
