    Thanks Guys, the event was fantastic and I'm so humbled by your overwelming Support! We had everything, More Dragsters than ever, a Cheetah Funny Car, my new friends Paul and Vicky Sattler from NZ with thier AWESOME Blown FE Dragster (Thanks Squeek), my TWIN survived 5 p***es with my son Lee, Elmer Snyder, Roseville Carl, "64 Dodge 440" Tom, and myself hammering it, over 150 cars racing, with MANY enjoying the new 64 and earlier Traditional Staging Lane. This was our Best OCT event yet, more later when it all sinks in!

    Here's what's going out to all on my eaglefielddrags.com email list............

    "O" MY HEAVENS, I just experienced one of the best times at the Drags IN MY LIFE!!!! I mean Wheels Up, Burning Rubber, Flag Start, Run What Ya Brung BEST EVENT WE'VE HAD!! WE had over 10 Dragsters (not Counting the HAMB Diggers) with Paul "PINS" Sattler from NZ putting on a show I won't soon forget, 4 of them I had never seen before. The UFRA was putting the word out they ARE BACK, G***ers came out of the woodwork, and what about Tim McMasters 55 T-Bird owned by friend Todd Jolliff and his Beautiful Nieces who where inducted into the Back Up Girl ranks and did an awesome JOB!
    I'm sorry I can't STOP with the exclation marks because I'm So Blessed to have so many Participants, Fans and Friends who DIG what we're doing. After many problems with my TWIN this year it ran flawlessly with my son Lee, friends Elmer Snyder, Tom Petry, Carl Lembke and myself hammering it and the TWIN had more for me on Sunday testing.
    We had over 130 Cars with some local grudge racing that was the talk of the town, I'll say it again......Stockers, HOT RODS, Muscle Cars, Race Cars, G***ers, Altereds, MINI Bikes, Jr Dragsters, a Cheeta FC, and Dragsters from all over PLUS a Fly-Over by the B-25 Old Glory and a BA DC-? Plane that gave the crowd a SHOW that will be hard to duplicate A N Y W H E R E !!! Let me see did I miss anything.........YES, The volunteers ran the 130 cars like a CIRCLE TRACK RACE after some minor malfunctions by race cars early on, the racers in our NEW 64 & earlier TRADITIONAL Lane and the Dragster, Altereds, EX., and MINI BIKE Lane made thier 5 scheduled p***es like clock work with the 2 GRUDGE Lane Racers getting as many as 10 Laps!
    We had the NW Traditional Hitters come down from OREGON, some from RENO, the Lazaris Family made a 7 hour haul, and Joe Donnally hauled from New Mexico or Las Vegas with his Olds to our little RACE. Everyone was greated by FANTASTIC Wheather Conditions, the DUST was minimal and well managed thanks to KBK Oils of Fresno, our new (76 Western Star) Water truck and local Friend & Supporter Joe Diedrich with his Modified Water Truck that put down a light amount of water during the event. I dunno, maybe I'm just crazy but I THINK IMHO we have something special and we call it TRUstalgia Racing, Join Us in MAY and get "Eagle Field Approved"!!!! Rocky

    Wow! I am just getting back into the swing of things. Rocky, I have to tell you that was the most fun that I have at at any event. I have been to all the big ones Hot Rod Reunion, LA Roadster Show, you get my point. If I had to choose any event to go to next year, it is this event. The hospitality was over the top as usual, great people, new friends, *****in atmosphere, just awesome!
    The boys from Oregon and the Estranged C.C. will be putting this one on our calenders for years to come. Also, How can I get a copy of this photo? Thanks again Mike

    ""O" MY HEAVENS, I just experienced one of the best times at the Drags IN MY LIFE!!!!"

    That pretty well sums it up Rocky. I'm going to be grinning from that p*** in the Evil Twin at least until New Years and then I'll start all over just thinking about it. :D

    Absolutely the best weekend at the drags we have ever had! Perfect weather, great friends and as Carl said..."the most fun you can have with your clothes on"!
