    We just recently had a thread on exactly this subject and lots of us agree that the drag racing we remember from days past was so much more fun. I actually flip past any modern day drag racing when surfing the channels and go to some other kind of show.

    My suggestion was and is, take your Son to one of the Nostalgia Drag races that are becoming so popular around the country. They go under various names like HAMB Drags, Billetproof Drags, etc. I guarantee that you will both have the time of your life and not be able to wait for the next one to happen. You will see cars you can actually relate to and guys and gals out there having a blast.

    I'm building my 27 just for one such event, the Billetproof Drags in Lakeland, Fl. in October. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!! You should be able to find one of these in NY State.

    Oh, and welcome to the forum. Here are some pictures from one we went to last October.
