Passing gas

[edit]

l have real doubts the '55 shown is a gasser. It's not jacked up nearly as much as I recall the typical gassers were... It might qual as a Modified. TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura 22:53, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Auction websites

[edit]

Auction websites - EBay in particular describe many cars for sale as a "Gasser Project". I dont get the sense that the sellers mean "gasser" in the sense from this page, but more of a synonym for hotrod. I want to add this information, any suggestions? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.173.6.50 (talk) 14:36, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid you'd fall foul of the commercial links issue. Might do better to contact the sellers & ask if they'd contribute here. (There's this & this that could use help from informed people, & model builders tend to be...). If they're reproducing a particular gasser (Ohio George's car, say), you might Google it & see if you can find a reliable online source, or a paper ref.

Outta gasser

[edit]

It's not clear to me, so I'm hoping somebody who knows more (or has better sources) can clarify. My understanding is, T/G is the pro class, & Gas is the amateur class. True? TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura

Table

[edit]

Not sure if you want the table you requested. Was there something wrong with it?  Stepho  talk  11:56, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As you'll see now, no: just the formatting problem... TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura 18:42, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've no objection to these re-appearing in any sort of list article, but they're swamping this article as it stands. The article needs to explain what a gasser is – that's not working with these in place. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:41, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think the introduction on this page is weak. I found the page, What Is a Gasser? A Lean, Mean Ladies Machine and The Gasser War Years: Drag Race Fuel Battles to be much more informative for basic orientation before getting into detail.
