I know nothing about drag bikes so my question is why would the front brake calipers/lower fork legs be reversed like that? Is there any benefit from this over the position they normally are?

nah, just to put more weight forward. every little bit helps. plus you can strap it without a bracket when you flip them.

Re: ROLL CALL ON the k5/k6 LETS SEE em'!
ha...people would pay good money for the answer to those questions..i can tell you one thing though.. drag racer's engines make more power than road racers do.. i mean they dont need them peaky they need em strong and flat, but ours peak.. and they peak high.
