What an awesome, and milestone, car. Just the bare bones necessary to get the job done. Gotta love it.

That is a great picture. This is the epitome of the birth of the sport. As scary looking as the "Bug" is, it is amazing in that was the first in several generations of dragsters. Thanks again Brian for a really neat article.

A seat belt....hmmmmmm.......I think I'd rather fly like superman. My go-kart has chased me several times but only landed on me (hard) once. No seat belt looks like a better idea to me. damn those guys had cahones. I feel like a wus just lookin' at that and thinkin 'bout drivin it over 100.......mommy..........
