Event Coverage Estranged Drags at Toutle, Wa. Fri-Sat-Sunday this weekend.

The big weekend has finally arrived. Everything you could want in a gathering, Drags/Show, and Swap Meet, along with a camp out. A couple of special attractions on the strip, Pat Ganahl and Ike's old Dragster, and Jerry Moreland's old '40 will hit the strip. Not sure what Rocky Phillips will be bringing, after the damage to the Evil Twin. See you there !

 

Pictures Please!!!!!! Especially of the Iacono/Ganahl dragster!!!!
I know you'll treat us right Marty!!!!

 

Thank you for the plug, Marty. I loaded in today and it was already SUPER busy with early birds. We are anticipating a huge turnout. Please come say hello - I have a booth on the entrance to the staging lanes and will be making as many passes as I can along the way.

8:00 to 5:00? 1/8 or 1/4-mile? How are the spectator parking areas (lots of space or tight)?

 

1/8th mile. Lots of space to park cars, but it is near Mt St Helens, so dusty old ash, and need to keep your windows rolled up while they're parked or they'll be dusty inside.
This is one of the most fun events anywhere! Lots of vintage iron, and well regulated to eliminate any newer cars.

 

Thanks. The weather should be perfect too.

 

As we always say here on the HAMB, pictures or it didn’t happen.

 

Did Pat really crash today????

 

Yes. @Nobey

 

Extreme sorrow for the loss of such a good & talented guy

 

Damn I wish I never saw this thread. I loved his writing style and the attitude it portrayed. The best automotive writer/chronicler I’ve ever read.

My condolences to his family and friends.

Speechless!

 

Sad, sad news. Hard to comprehend the sudden and tragic loss.
