Hi guys I went out to the Nostalgia drags today. Awesome day out. It was really cool to see such a variety of cars racing from Hotrods to Front engine dragsters to oldschool nitro.
The Nitro funny cars where amazing to watch, soo quick.
It was really cool to catch up with the forum guys and see some of them race. I also went to Breakfast at Bellagios and I will post pictures of that soon.
Here are the pictures... Enjoy

Haha, unfortunately I was not racing. I would love to but the Charger would be move suited to race at MoPar drag days.

Wonder what would have the fastest 1/4 mile - your 'Tiger' Avenger or '4 Barrel' Charger??

I don't know, they are similar power to weight ratio.
The stock 1/4 miles back in the day was 16.7 for the Charger 770 265 hemi automatic and 17.7 for the Avenger Tiger II. So on paper back in the day the Charger would win by a second but going by feel I still think the Avenger is faster. Or at least it feels much faster.
