Eastern Hot Rodder: Gasser Facts and History

Here is a little history lesson on the old gas classes in drag racing complete with vintage photos. Gassers are popular for their brutalness as gas swilling asphalt assaulters. We share with you some of their history so that you can make your gasser tribute right.
Visit www.gassermadness.com and link to Byron's site, or go to https://efregoso.github.io/gassermadnessus/ to see Byron's original website to get more information. That is where I found a lot of the info on the weight break changes to the classes through the 1960s.
Another great one to check out is http://georgeklass.net for a great collection of photos from drag racing's heyday.
Hope you learned something from the video and it helped build your interest in the awesome gasser class cars.Show more

Thanks to all the people who keep the history alive. Thanks to my friend Ken for giving me the historic drag pics.
