TULSA NOSTALGIC DRAGS June 30th Whos coming

Finnaly a year when im not outta town the weekend of the old time drags, i think its been about 4-5 years since i have been. . . Just wondering who else is coming up and what your bringing/racing and what kinda times you running in the 1/4. Also anything else going on afterwards ??? There is a group of us going out and im gonna run the 57 . . . even though the motor and trans is out right now !!!

 

more details please. track location, time, and car limitations. I might be able to make it.

 

plannin on it.

 

Im not sure if there is a specific website dedicated to the drags but im sure there will be someone chiming in shortly with cl***es and how the race is actually ran. . . Not sure but it may just be a test and tune kinda thing or there maybe actual eliminations, either way i just wanna run with some similar era cars !!! The track is just north of tulsa on us 169 at 36th street north and there homepage is www.tulsaracewaypark.com Excellent facility and very nice racing surface and track officials. We run a promod there and it will hold it, so i know it will take anything you can throw at it .

 

I believe I'll go, won't be racing though

 

Here's a link that I found on the website: http://www.tulsaracewaypark.com/flyers/2007%20Flyers/Old%20Time%20Drags.htm

Me and Danyelle went last year and had a blast... Mabee again this year.

 

man uncle dan invited me up , still broke from little river and new carbs , but dam the coupes running good ? I would love to make this ?

 

Mr. Mac is part of the host club, I'm sure he'll provide all the important info.

 

Damn 1972 and older. I am itching to get my new
commuter on the track.

Edmunds says it should do 13.3 @106 but I want to
try it for myself.

 

The central state g***ers are a part of the show as well. I think as of now we have 13 cars to run heads up with a 10.0 cap 11 fendered g***ers and two open wheel b/altereds... come out and play with us...mr mac is the man to see about this show guys......

 

The Texas Outsiders, Nostalgia Super Stocks will be there......should have 10 or 15 pretty dam quick NSS cars there. 3 of our "team" cars will be there from the Texas Thunder shop..........all with 4 speeds in em.........

M.

 

Don't forget to bring up some more of your Texas beer!...

The Ramrods will be there...

 

I'll be hauling over the flathead HA/GR for the race. Recycler also plans to run his new Top Fuel rail (Black Widow) for the first time. Can't wait.

 

Any one bring a superstock x frame car that launchs like this

 

Well, of course we'll be there with the Anglia. Although, we're probably just gonna run as part of the Central State G***ers this year. I figured it up and I guess we've been going to the old time drags for about 13 years now. It's something we look forward to all year long! We love the Tulsa Roadsters and hope they continue puttin' on this show for many years to come! For you newbies...look out for old man Carter in his old vette. He'll kick your ***! How old is he gettin to be now, around 80?

 

I think he told me he was 82 a few weeks ago when i was talking to him

 

Counting down .....

 

...so the Dirtys' are comin'?...

 

Plaining on it ...

 

I think Carter won all the marbles there a few years ago.
Legend has it that he ran that Vette with a stick in it well into his 60's or early 70's.
The race used to be set up where all the cl***es ran to a logical conclusion and then the winners ran for a "Top Eliminator" and extra cash.
I don't know if that format still holds true or not.
Regardless of that,it is still one of the funnest races of the year in these parts.

 

Anybody from the DFW area going up and back on Saturday? Or at least going up on Saturday morning?

I'm in Plano at my Mom's until Friday night. I'm getting the urge to go up and watch the drags. Maybe I could hitch a ride with somebody that's not driving their wife's '04 Malibu?

 

I may try to head over for a few hours. I've been wanting to see some of the HA/GR cars up close. Might be picking up a part that's headed up from Edmond for my latest project while I'm there.

'72 and older? Heh, my wife would **** if I ran the '68 Nova that was her 94 year old great aunt's car. It's my daily driver now, 250 / powerglide, and bare bones.

 

Weather is really not looking good for this event, anyone heard any discussion of cancellation or rescheduling?

 

EEK!!!

Sunday the 1st is the rain date.
The alternative forecast makes Sun. look kinda promising. http://www.accuweather.com/forecast.asp?partner=ihra&zipcode=74104
I think I'm gonna trade my Race Car for a deck boat.LOL

 

Yeah, it's been raining way too much around Tulsa lately. Sure was nice seeing the wind chill listed on the local news web site yesterday afternoon. Don't see that in Oklahoma during the summer...

 

I'm going,a little late got to work until 2pm,car isn't even close to done,maybe be drivable for h.a.m.b. drags I hope.. .

 

If you're going bring a boat or at the very least hip-waders... ​

 

I think we are going to try and hit it. We may go by the Trinity show also.

See if I can get Chip Foose's autograph for Boom Boom.
