Event Coverage Eastern Drag News, Sept 1964

I've found some very nice editions of the Eastern Drag News and I thought I'd scan and post them a few pages at a time, this is from September, 1964:


This is for starters, lots more to come. Were any of you guys at these tracks back then? any of the cars familiar?

 

Great stuff OJ !!!! Can we see more please ?

Wow, that’s great stuff. I’m looking forward to seeing more.

 

Very cool stuff...Thanks @oj....

 

Thanks for bringing back the memories of Vargo !

 

Thank you! When I had The U.S. Mule II I had a few issues of that magazine, a nice quality publication that covered all the East Coast racing. Bob

Big Ed's Speed Shop? Any of you guys remember it? I remember Big Ed's, Franks's High Performance Hardware & S&S Speed - there were some great cars running out of those shops

 

Yes, lots of memories. As a young teenager I would go to the Sanford, Maine drag events at the airport with my dad. Especially when the dragsters would be there. Thanks for posting.

 

I have quite a few issues of Eastern Drag News tucked away. If anyone is interested in them, contact me.

 

I think you'll find a fellow Hamb'r mentioned in these photo's

 

A few more pages:


The missing pages were listings of national records and that kind of thing, there wasn't any stories that capture the period, this is the last page:
