If you're a fan of the high-winding, gear-jamming doorslammers that once comprised the now defunct Modified eliminator, the Classic Gear Jammers Inc., has preserved this style of drag racing and now tours around the Carolinas and Virginia. Last weekend the group made a stop at the Union County Motorsports Park in Union, SC.

If you're a fan of the high-winding, gear-jamming doorslammers that once comprised the now defunct Modified eliminator, the Classic Gear Jammers Inc., has preserved this style of drag racing and now tours around the Carolinas and Virginia. Last weekend the group made a stop at the Union County Motorsports Park in Union, SC.

The Classic Gear Jammers Inc. was formed in 1990. A time when the electronic gadgets were just starting to overwhelm the sport of drag racing, many of the diehard drag racing fans clamored for a time when cars would rev to the breaking point and launch skyward with wheels lifting with every gear shift.

The group proclaims themselves as a touring racing series, and recently raced as many times as twenty-two events at six different tracks in Southwest Virginia and North Carolina. The Classic Gear Jammers consist of all American classic, wheel standing, four and five-speed ‘stick shift’ cars and trucks running a dial-in, break-out format.
