Tour in Brazil yielded good stories and another car for the collection, is it?

I visited the birthplace of drag racing in Rio Grande do Sul, in Porto Alegre to literally fall for a slightly different barbecue hit. I visited the Marcelo Drag Racing workshop, which prepares the cars of my great friend Gelson Silva, who had the first Volkswagen Beetle with FuelTech in the world and a great partner in the development of automotive madness.

In the video we will tell a little bit of our stories and how the engine of my Supra #tudokida from the USA ended up in Brazil, to go to a Cobalt, ridden by Gelson and Marcelo Drag Racing, the one who already owned the Yellow Chevette TTB, one of the most fantastic cars I've ever seen in drag.

It prepares you that there is a lot of behind-the-scenes history of the drag race, and it is another proof that this sport is driven by the passion and union between pilots, coaches, enthusiasts and brands, which I believe and am so proud to stamp the FuelTech brand in the cars and dreams of these people.
