In the 1970s and 1980s, alcohol funny cars were the kings of the quarter-mile.
Nostalgia funny cars provide a step back in time, while still providing racetrack thrills even by today’s standards.
Among the many things to see and do at Super Summit 2017 at Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, OH, will be to take in the sights and sounds of these throwback racecars, courtesy of the Akron, OH-based Great Lakes Nostalgia Funny Car Circuit.
Five of the approximately 20 race teams that make up the GLNFCC will be at Super Summit, including the unveiling of the circuit’s newest vintage funny car Friday night.
