The time has come to announce my retirement from Drag Racing with the Ain’t No Saint Volvo Gasser.

I would like to thank all our supporters/fans of the gasser during the past 10 plus years for their love of my quirky take of the gasser theme. A bit Marmite to some but definitely hit the mark especially with Hotwheels/Mattel, world wide fame who would have thought it.

The gasser has now been sold to an old friend, who emigrated to the USA and will appear on track in Texas at some point in the future.

This was a heartfelt decision and not taken lightly by myself and the team but the time felt right for a myriad of reasons I hope you will all forgive me.

Our page will remain active with updates etc.

Fondest regards from the team,

Ain’t No Saint
Lee ,Sue, Eleanor, Tori and Sarah.

Ever wondered what we submitted to Hot Wheels to win Hot Wheels Legends - Official Group ?? Here was our video! Along with some blurb that said " A British built, Scandinavian bodied, American engined, family run race car"

RIP Isky. The hot rod and drag racing world have lost a once in a generation legend but your legacy has and will continue to shape the sport.

It is with great sadness that we share the news of our dear friend Ed Iskenderian’s passing, who left us today at the age of 104. To put it at its mildest, even a vague overview of Isky’s achievements is simply jaw dropping. His place as one of the greatest American entrepreneurs to come from the racing and aftermarket speed equipment world is undeniable, as were his groundbreaking advertising campaigns that transformed the way go-fast parts were marketed. This combination of good business sense, his gift for branding, and a brilliant mind for engineering came together to build what will forever be one of the most recognized brands in the history of auto racing… all from a kid born into gripping poverty who famously set his goal as a child to someday make $100 a day! Over the years we have had the great privilege of being friends with Ed. He joined our Advisory Board at the very launch of the AHRF and has been invaluable to us from day one, sharing his knowledge and answering questions that only he could. After all, Ed had literally seen and lived the entire timeline of the hot rod movement- from its birth to present day. In all our years of spending time with Ed, it is safe to say that we never met anyone more ferociously curious. Every single time we crossed paths with Ed, he would have a new discovery that he couldn’t wait to tell us about. He would be as excited as a little kid and absolutely busting, as he was when we once met him for a Wednesday lunch and he’d just come from a scrapyard where he’d taken the mechanical valve timing assembly off of a modern Honda and spread it across the table while excitedly explaining to us how it worked. He’d gone to the scrapyard himself and removed all of this, and he was 98 at the time! This, to us, was his secret. Ed never stopped wondering, considering, learning or hoping. The secret to his long life. We thank Ed for this example and for everything he did for our beloved tradition. He was an inspiration, a wonderful person, a great friend that we will miss, and the last of his kind. RIP, Edward Iskenderian. July 10, 1921-February 3, 2026. We have now come to the falling of the last redwood.

14th November is an auspicious day...

Today John Force officially announces his retirement from driving. Thank you sir for all the thrills, spills and developments within the sport... especially safety - without it your career would have been much shorter....

4 years ago today it was publicly announced we had won Hot Wheels Legends Tour - what a ride that has been!

And it is Lee's Dad's heavenly birthday.
