Is this the same chassis Mary & Hoss Grace ran a blown Lancia engine or an earlier chassis to this picture. I recall it had a huge Chromes & Flames decal on the cowl. Also Mary & Hoss were, in some small capacity, part of 'UK Drag Racing' magazine along with Magic Mushroom!

Just been watching one of Nick's Time Travel Vid's this morning #17 and up popped a shot of Tony Anderson's Trouble dragster. Nick recounted in commentary that the dragster was still around and was last seen at North Weald with a Rover V8 power. How long ago was that Nick when TT17 was produced?

That would have been around the mid 90s when I was running my dragster at North Weald, I think I recall seeing the chassis up for sale at the NSRA Swap Meet since then and that was probably about 10 years ago...

Looks like the Brighton Show again Jon. Any idea what the blue Funny Car is top left in pic 1 and top right of pic 5. is it the Blue Max Mustang by any chance. I see they had Gene Snow's Snowman Arrow on display next to Priddle's JWR Monza.
