    Default Burning Out in Drag

    On to a new challenge, for a modified dragster, not quite a rail, more than a funny car, called "The Rat Trap". Designed as the first of four post so as not to lose the enthusiasm, you'll see the finish before week's end. The cartoon in front is from the original photograph.

    Only four days? Good grief! You like to put the pressure on don't you?
    I began with the power source:

    "Intbel" ... "Can't" is not an option.

    Compliance is futile. Resistance is futile. Just do your own thing an' ignore 'em.

    You're done with the hardest part, what are you complaining about! Who's putting the pressure on whom? (Raymond isn't highjacking the thread, we are both drawing the same thing each from our own point of view.)

    Delighted to see the models although I must I was a bit worried when I read the title of the thread.

    The title does bear a resemblance to what is depicted. The problem is how the viewer interprets it, James.

    Well, Raymond, you make it tough, my fingers almost bled to get this drawing done.

    >cough< You are driving me to smoke, that is my engine is. Better add some rear wheels right soon as it will be murder on the power plant. Got to jack up the rear end and add the rest of the body and assorted parts. I guess if I sleep the latter half of the week that will make up for it.
