Last weekend saw the Springspeed National Drag Racing season kick off at Shakespeare County Raceway. I was there for the Saturday qualifiers, so the next few images represent a vignette of vehicles and colours from the day. Here is 'Backdraft' driven by Chris Hartnell, in a wheelie blast off from the start line. This style is known as a 'slingshot' dragster, and part of a group calling themselves the 'Wild Bunch'
