Great idea! I'll be keeping an eye out on this one.
One of the GN sites had this on it's front page. I'm not sure when it was taken but it's one of my favourite wheelstand shots of all time.

That will be tough to beat!

Here's a cool shot from the B.O.P. Nationals at Bristol a few weeks ago. Not the highest wheelstands I've ever seen but because they are 2 of 'our boys' doing a synchronised 'stand it is one of my most favourite shots.

Here ya go Chris. I think because you are trying to upload a bitmap (.bmp) it won't display. Try saving all pictures you want to display on the web as jpeg's (.jpg). They end up being smaller too.

LOL! You took the words right out of my mouth Lon. I was also thinking Gremlin!
It looks more like an Apollo rocket impersonation than anything else. The REAR WHEELS are half a foot off the ground! :eek2:

I know it's not Buick, but this is by far the best Olds wheelie I've ever seen. Am I gonna see any of y'all at the Miller race in Norwalk? I know there's some Olds here... You can go up against this guy...Oh, BTW, to see the movie, right click on the url and select save target as, then run it from winamp or windows media player.

And if that is a gremlin(looks it to me), I'm thinking 401. Those things are monsters. My dad had one in his 78 cherokee. Badass. got squirly at 110, though.

That AMC looks like a Hornet around
72 to 74 . And that awsome wheelie by that wagon did, I was shooting a video from next to the tower . Believe it or not I could see the front hood chrome from behind the car and he bent his rear bumper and scraped his fuel cell. :jd:

Unfortunately Josh there are two things wrong with your pic.
1) It's a bitmap (.bmp). Save it as a jpeg (.jpg). It will be much smaller.
and
2) It's a blank white picture.
Don't worry about your computer skill. None of us where born with the knowledge.

Awesome picture! :laugh:
I had to show that pic to my dad. He has a mild 76 Hornet that runs 13.20's with a 360 in it. Street tires and full exhaust.
We've decided that we're 100% sure that's not a Hornet.
It looks like either a Gremlin or a Pacer. I'd put my money on it being a Gremlin.....
..a very sore Gremlin after that run I'm sure! OUCH!
:laugh:
