late 1960's early 1970's dragsters and the haulers they got rides on

Don Prudhomme's race cars, and race car transporters for the Snake and Mongoose funny cars

For a full gallery of the yellow one, here it is from SEMA http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2009/11/don-prudhommes-funny-car-hauler-1967.html

 I think "Lil' John's Place" refers to Lil' John Buttera

 the design and paint are by Kenny Youngblood, he signs his work "Blood did it"

just for the reminiscent perspective

Some of the coolest dragsters, diggers, slingshots, and launches are found on ClassicDragsters.com.... what took me so long to look through it?

See more good photos and a video of the above Jade Warrior, a 1985 motorcycle... 2 wheels qualifies as a motorcycle; http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/12/zaniest-hting-ive-seen-in-whiel-jade.html

  

 Looks like a real TV Batmobile at the dragstrip... I wonder if the smoke out the back was hot or cold?

Thses are all from 88 pages of just one album http://www.classicdragsters.com/v/Others/ among about 4 dozen... so if I got you worked up to sit back and enjoy dragsters, get through the link, soak it up, and look into the dozens of other albums!
