Great pics everyone welldone It was sad to read on the nsra forum that one of the Rods on show had bricks thrown at it as it left the show breaking a window and body damage.
Another car on show was involved in a 3 car pile up are had rear damage, I hope everyone else got home safe.
I think they are going to have a collection at the Essex swap meet so if you see a bucket you know what it's for

What size is the tot slingshot dragster? There is nothing in shot to give it any scale.
Posted: Wed Mar 01, 06 8:57 am
Stu said it was about 1/4 scale, so if you know the normal wheelbase, you do the math 
I didnt read it close enuf to see it was a Tot Rod, until you said Dave, thought it was 'just' a working model!
Rather put my tot in one of those than the usual lawn-mower-engined-jobbies

More like action man size

Mmm. Looks bigger than quarter scale to me. More like 1/2 scale I would have thought?
Can't think what wheelbase the old slingshots were off the top of my head. Something like 106 inches springs to mind though??
That would make a 1/2 scale model about 5 or 6 feet long in total?

Dave, how about that Coca-Cola tank...could that be a clue
Posted: Wed Mar 01, 06 1:02 pm
I reckon Dave's right. I think the tables give an idea, they look about 3 to 4ft square, and I think the signs are A4 & A3. Dont think the coke can is normal (330ml) size tho, but summat made up.
That K&N looks like the one we used to have on a Dellorto 40DHLA, prob 9" long?
But hey, pretty good bit of engineering whatever size it is.

I just measured the coke can on my screen and compared it to the on screen length of the dragster. Taking 2.5 inches as the width of a coke can that works out as around 6.5 feet or more depending how much it is forshortened by the perspective.
So yeah I would say those notices are A3 and A4 and it is about 7 feet long.
Now someone make me a full sized one.
