As the owner of a Tri-Five Chevrolet, the term used to describe 1955, 1956, and 1957 Chevrolets I can tell you that going to an event like the Tri-Five Nationals in Bowling Green is an eye opener. Lucky for us we get to watch what is going on thanks to our friend Tommy Lee Byrd, aka the Hot Rod Hoarder. Check out his coverage, starting right here with a video showing all the fun drag cars, including Gassers, Stockers, and More!
Video Description:
History everywhere you turn! So many great gassers, Junior Stockers and crazy vintager show cars here at the Danchuk Tri-Five Nationals in Bowling Green, Kentucky. One of my favorite events to cover, and I’ll be bringing you more of the action throughout the weekend. Lots of great drag racing in various classes, including exhibition cars, which do crazy wheel stands and burnouts. I’m hoping to generate a LOT of great videos from the Tri Five Nats so stay tuned for more highlight videos as well as full features on some of the historic drag cars on hand.
Sorry to see that poor green 56 get thrashed by an owner who doesn’t care.
Looks like he cares a lot. Not a very rare car, its a race car doing race car things.
