As a follow-up to yesterday’s report of Top Fuel cars coming to Bakersfield May 1-3 for Drag Fest, there is also a complement of Nitro Funny Cars that are slated to appear at this Rod & Kulture Magazine-sanctioned drag race. Among the rumored and proposed Famoso Raceway-bound entries: Jack Wright’s Joker Challenger, Dale Pulde’s War Eagle Trans Am, the Future Flash Dodge Charger, the Beach City Chevrolet Corvette, Mendy Fry in McCain’s Bomb Squad Plymouth Duster, the Fighting Irish machine, the Crazy Horse Mustang, Lee Paul Jennings and his American Revolution (nee Code Red), Kris Krabil in bike magnate Gary Turner’s Pedaler, and the Burnin’ Money Camaro.
