TV Tommy I thought his Showboat was the coolest thing as a kid.
Idgaf what you think this little bastards cute as hell.
I can appreciate pushing limits. RACING implies driving skill and besting your competition. Chasing records is about building the machine. I enjoy that too but don't count it as racing. Be honest, you aren't driving that car very much. You're along for the ride. It's more about the build than the drivers skill.

Flashback Friday: "TV" Tommy Ivo's Legendary Four-Engined "Showboat" - Dragzine
In 1961, famed actor and drag racing legend "TV" Tommy Ivo rolled out a creation that would become one of, if not the greatest exhibition vehicle of all time. With four Buick V8 engines strapped to the framerails, Ivo's all-wheel drive dragster was a true marvel.

It's not racing if there is only one car on the track and all they are doing is racing against the clock. Having a bunch of retards standing on the sides of the course doesn't add anything to the race either. As far as high dollar televised racing, Group A cars cost at least $1M to build and run, a Top Fuel Funny Car is half that, and a World of Outlaw sprint car is half of that.
