Very cool! Thanks! That dragster in #5 is awesome. Thanks for shareing. Our club, the Thunderbolts, was around back in the 50s but folded and was revived a few years ago. One of the original, and also current members, Olen Tieman, has a 32 5w he had back then, just like it was then. He bought the car in 1957. Have a copy of a picture from National Dragster with photo of him running @ Caddo Mills back in around '62, car looks the same. Thanks again!
the last.......... And of course,things went horribly wrong in the 70's....... god-damn ghastly wrong....... but we recovered.
Jeff, Thanks for posting the pics. I love seeing the pictures of the old days. We've GOT to remember where we came from. Frank
No...I was not even born then.....the orig prez and his bro ran that sbc/potvinblown fiat.....there were many other drag racers in the club,but I do not have access to there pics as of yet. and ya know what...he is still the prez......since '56 and still going strong.
