Get yourself the new DVD "Once Upon A Wheel."  It is the Snake and Mongoose story, plus an old documentary about them, plus a 35 minute slideshow of all their rails and funnies.  You can find it on Ebay for $30 shipped, or go online to Prestige Hobbies.  That is a hobby shop that Mongoose sells memorabilia through.

They actually remade that drag race set a couple of years ago and sold them at K-Marts.  It even had the little traps that held the parachutes at the end of the track.  I vaguely remember having that set when I was little.
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.
