ScottRods AA/Gassers to make special appearance at Dodge//SRT U.S. Nationals
Fans attending this weekend’s Dodge//SRT NHRA U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis will get a healthy dose of nostalgia as the ScottRods AA/Gasser series will make a special guest appearance. Eight vintage gassers will make exhibition runs during the event and the cars will be on display along with many other period-correct race cars representing more than 70 years of NHRA competition.
The ScottRods AA/Gasser series is a nostalgia drag racing match race organization presented by www.scottrodscustom.com. The eight racers making exhibition runs at Lucas Oil Raceway at Indianapolis will include Frankie Allen and his Trick or Treat ’33 Willys, Ed Beaumont’s Orange Peel ’63 Corvette, Mark Benjamin’s ’33 Willys, Bob Cook’s Crazy Grandpa ’57 Corvette, Mike Kalinowski’s Unfinished Business ’48 Austin, Ed Kasicki’s Phenomenon ’33 Willys, Ray Kasicki’s Violator ’33 Willys, and Al Lynch’s ’67 Nova.
Each of the ScottRods Gassers are supercharged and feature the long smokey burnouts and wheelstanding action that fans grew to love during the original gasser era of the 1960s. Their period-correct styling extends from the cars to the pit crews including the popular backup girls who help each driver during the staging process.
The ScottRods Association makes regular appearances at events across the country including the NHRA Hot Rod Reunion in Bowling Green, Ky., and this year’s Summit Racing Equipment Nationals in Norwalk, Ohio and the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals at zMax Dragway in Concord, N.C. All eight racers are scheduled to make one run each on Friday and Saturday during the Indianapolis event.
