    Thanks for pics. I missed it because my father in law passed away. At least I lived it through pics.

    Give it a shot.

    Some really nice looking rides and cool looking drag cars.

    I like the Quick Trip 55.

    Here is a fuzzy picture of the original car around 1969. After searching for five years for the original car, with no luck, a replica was built. Joe Fleming was at the controls yesterday, he was one of the original drivers. Running a best speed of 186 MPH in 1971.

    Hey Scot. Thanks for posting all the pictures. What a great day! This event just gets better every year. And it was great meeting you and your brother, and meeting some of the other HAMB members attending the event (although most of my time was spent sitting/cooking in the 55 Chevy !). And what a huge turnout of cars!
    This event just gets better every year, and has become my favorite meet of the year. I'll try to post some video's later. :)

    Nice meeting you yesterday (even if you did eliminate me second round). The Henry J sounded great ! Unfortunately,neither one of us was any match for that 9 second Corvette anyway. :D

    Hi Jack. Nice meeting you yesterday. I just had coffee with Ed this morning. Looks like Pete is going to be in the car next week at the reunion. I'll email him these pictures today. Love the old pictures you post. Great stuff and great memories.

    I'd like to chime in for a moment to say thanks to everyone for turning out and making the show what it is, we appreciate it.

    Also, I'm starting the 2013 Drag Reunion photo archive page. I'd sure like it if you folks would email your best pictures from the reunion to info@dragreunion.com

    Hey John. Thank you for putting on such a great event! Gets better every year. I thought it was very well organized and the staff did a great job. The new staging area worked like a charm. And the number of cars in the show area was incredible. Already looking forward to next year !
    Thanks again,
    Baron

    So, can anyone confirm they only race 300 feet, or is it 1/8 mile like the videos seem to be? Which runway is being used. Just curious, I like to GoogleMaps.Com these sorts of things. Butch/56sedandelivery.

    I had a lot of fun. The day didn't start well, but it sure wound up pretty great. Not sure how I managed to see just about everything, but didn't run into you guys at all.
