    Mazooma, thanks for throwing a pic of my AWB Dart! The guys at Mickey Thompson were cool enough to have me bring it out front from where I was pitted way out back in the weeds, and leave it there for the afternoon. Way cool. I've never seen such an old track have so many people in the bleachers! Coming into the water box, and seeing a sea of people gave me a great idea of what it would have been like for Garlits, Ivo, and others back in the day. And some of the old videos, that show the shot of the track, down low from the start,and the slow curvature of it. Man, I gotta tell you, its******in to see it from in the seat of a car. Blows you away!!

    Thanks for the pix, Doug. I saw the Anaconda getting ready for paint and Kelly's Crazy Painters in Bellflower. The metal work was pretty rough then. They did a stand up job, huh? Woulda made ol' Starvin' Marvin smile, i bet.

    Hey Billy when are you guys coming down for the experience?
    I didn't see the usual Spokane guys at Famoso Drag Strip this time.
    Hopefully at the Hot Rod Reunion this fall.
