Is this much twist, more than the frame can take, without damage? Front and back photos

the thread at http://www.bangshift.com/forum/index.php?topic=24147.msg396826;topicseen is debating the issue, and from what little I know, if it doesn't make the car go straight faster or quicker, than it's not a good side affect. Wheels off the ground is typically a bad thing, and regularly considered a waste of power to lift the car instead of pushing it forward... so I can't understand the people whose opinion or expertise states that this is a good effect... well it's brain candy, but that isn't why they are on the dragstrip is it?

BBNH tumbler has a couple of cool images I felt the need to share
Don't they realize they need to do some chassis work?

the choice selections from voiture-jaune.tumblr so far, James Dean scene from Hud, and Steve McQueen on the set of Great Escape before the bike jump
These two images are enduring.
I've read but can't recall the story with Dean Jefferies and the woman... maybe it was her car? Anyway, cool artists paint box, I've photographed all the pinstripers paint boxes that I've come across so far, and it's very interesting to me to see how each puts their name / logo on them with a bit of lettering and pinstripping
