And there friends is 60's drag racing all in one shot. Weed burners, Speed Sport scoop, and the towers at Irwindale. Damn, I'd like to go back there for just one day!!

sorry, Dean...that's San Gabriel
you can see the Santa Fe Dam in the background on the right
There were no high tension lines on the north side of irwindale.

 

I thought that was San Gabriel? Don't I see Santa Fe Dam in the background on the right?

 

Thanks Mazooma. Thought so...

Going back to# 23169.

Gee, I must have been channeling Plum when I was 10.
That's kind of freaky.

 

Damn you nit pickers. They were both with in a mile of each other. I don't care which it is, I'd still like to go back for a day.

 

why don't we just go back and stay there and leave this stinking turd of the 2000's behind?

 

Here here!

Ol Mikio keeps telling me that was his dad driving, his excuse was he was to young to drive. Told you he still stirs the crap pot

 

Mazooma, you and Dean outa try the Irwindale track across the 605 from where the old San Gabriel was. Lots of home made cars having a great time. Only problem is too many rice burners but that can't be helped. Kids nowadays think they are the hottest thing since sunburn. At 3:30 of this video listen to the excitment of the crowd after the hondas burnout. My son gave the honda a good head start then proceeded to show him what and American V-8 is all about. Enjoy. and Dean what did you think of my new color for the El Camino???
