Bunker Hill Indiana the first ever drag strip in Indiana. I hadnt been here for many years. 1/8th mile and it hasnt changed much over the years.
The Road King Car club had a show and race there Sunday , tons of hot rods smoking tires etc.

What kind of time does the dragster turn in the 1/8 mile?

This is what we used for drugs when I was young. TOO much fun...

 

[Flathead]

What are they running for fuel, and what kind of ET do they run?

 

[BUBBAS IGNITION]

They run racing fuel , beats me on the ET and i think it was less than 100 mph...
Seen to many runs to remember the ET ......
