JETS…Dover Had plenty…Untouchable, Doug Rose , Romeo Palamides, Art Arfons….that looks like a “lift” from one of our Historical Photo Disc…But May be the guys private shot. The ODF galleries Now updated to 3500 shots. Historical Photo Dic has about 3000. PLENTY of Jet Shots by various photographers in all differant years.When I get a Chance ,I’ll pull some notables and do a “teaser” in the” Multi-media ” section.

I was always curious as to why on almost every early jet dragster the drivers head was always higher than the
rollbar if there even was a rollbar. Remember seeing two crashes of jet dragsters they ran fast but didn’t get
stopped in time to not run off of the end of the track.
