Back in the day.. 3rd world island drags
 

Here some footage from the 90's of our island Trinidad.... notice how the rotary's was always in the lead :icon_tup:... Now times have changed, the track is filled with R34's, Evo's, FD's etc..

old school!

Old skool indeed.... But it has come a long way, unfortunately they cannot get a proper track to run on these days.. Racers have to prep the "track" themselves and with their own money so thats why some fools resort to foolish behavior like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kfj7...eature=related

Anthony this man is a legend, he was the fastest man in the english speaking caribbean, even faster than the Aruba cars that used to come Wallerfield to race... Unlike you and Mr Mitsu, im a real trini :rlaugh: My uncles used to take me to see drags with my baby bottle (now its a rum bottle :rlaugh:)
The first rail was built using the chassis from a Datsun pickup, how fucking scary is that :eek: and the car before that , the Unico Kingswood had tubs made out of an old steel oil drum :eek:
You and Crispeed is white men with Trini accent :rlaugh:, alyuh don't remember the good old days

The 1st video from 84 di guy said it in di video, I wounder what that Escort had it in the No Problem one shit wass running wounder if dey had Rotary in it, But that Sunny AkA sentra was running hardd toooo, Big up to the home land TNT. Good shit man


Trini

In di second video I doh know why TNT police tryin to catch him dey doh ever catch anyone lol.


Trini

^ the commentator had no clue on what he was saying :lol: He sound like he's more suited for a cricket game or football match<-- thats socca for you americans :lol:

"No problem" had a Nissan 280C inline 6 i believe, with a diesel crank... basically a "home made" stroker kit with a motor from a taxi :lol:

LOL I still dont see why dey call American football, football here in the States its stupid :lol:


Trini

Actually it's not a home made stroker kit. That's how it's done all over the world by Nissan experts to this day. :)

I know a old fox like you would know about tricks like this.... to bad you to darn old to remember the good ole days of the mother land and when rotarys ruled it :rlaugh:

Oh I remember but don't forget I had to leave for mental treatment after 'Big Daddy' tried to kill me like about 20yrs ago with the Unico kingswood! :rlaugh:
On a serious note we need to say a prayer for Big Daddy's mom who suffered a heart attack a couple of days ago here in Miami.

Wow Chris thats sad news man, I hope everything goes will for her and I'll keep her and the Ramkisson family in prayer... Boy you're hear one minute and gone the next thats why you have to enjoy every moment of life and live it the way the big man upstairs intended us to live..




So yuh did remember :lol:
I saw that Kingswood for the first time at a carshow in Valpark, I think i was about 8-9yrs old at the time :lol:
