    Last weekend, an informal old time drag race was held at Eagle Field in the Central CA Valley, west of Fresno. Pics: http://www.hotrodrevue.co.nz/forum/v....php?f=6&t=215

    We had a flagman start on a 1/8 mile track. No elimination, race as often and against whoever you want. It was down and dirty, literally, considering all the blowing dust.

    The first event was held last October, and this latest one had many more cars as the word got out. There will be another this coming October, and I predict this thing will get very big. Yes, you can go back. Go Black Betty!
