    I'm doing this from memory, sso cut me some slack.
    In 59 or 60 Don Kraft stripped everything unecessary from a lakes car and ran it at the Santa Anna strip and turned about 110. His competetors called it a rail job and purpose built dragsters were called rails for years till the advent of the long wheelbase cars when they became slingshots. Personally, I still call them rails.

    I guess we should know what his car is.

    He said a "Volve bug". Is that a Volvo?... or a Volkswagen?
