    Your Support and Donations mean the world to me and will go a long way to saving Eagle Field. Drag Race Enthusiasts have become a BIG part of Eagle Field, with many enjoying the Runway much like many of our Fathers & Grandfathers did accross the country after World War II. Eagle Field has become very dear to me for many Reasons other than Drag Racing that include many new friendships and the part the Historic Site played in WWII in which a few of its surviving Cadets still visit today. So please help with even a Bump of support and come on out and "Live Some History" at our next event! Thank You Again, Rocky

    Writen by my good friend and Eagle Field Announcer John Matijasic, Thank You John!
    On December the 15th, we are having a fundraiser to SAVE THE RUNWAY AT EAGLEFIELD. Why should is this important to you? Because we have started something wonderful and new at Eaglefield TRUSTALGIA…racing and rodding for the rest of us, not just the high dollar and high-pressure drag racing of the major organizations. The owner at Eaglefield has already shouldered the first of the expenses by renewing the asphalt approach to the starting line, but NOW, it is up to US to finish the and maintain the job. We have and many will enjoy the camaraderie and fun that we have had running cars up the Eaglefield Runway for the past two years. The top end of the runway is showing the wear we have put on it in having such a great time. It is now time pitch in a couple of dollars, give an auction item, bid generously at the auction or online, and help keep the growing the events at Eaglefield. In addition to the two drag racing events there is the Eaglefield Fly-In and dance in June and hopefully more fun events to use and honor this WWII jewel from out past. I know that this is the beginning of the holiday season, but give gift that keeps on giving and throw in a couple bucks to make sure that somebody says “Thanks for coming out to Eaglefield and racing with us.”

    A "COOL" Edelbrock Achievement Award that hung in Service Center @ Fresno CA, awarded in 1982 and is in really good shape to look great in your favorite room. Measuring 11 1/2 x 14 1/2" OA, these items are hard to photograph and show the coolness of the Chrome/mirror finish

    Item 4

    One pr of 15" x 8 1/2" American Racing Equipment Torq Thrust wheels originally purchased by Ray Silva in the mid 60's.

These are are in real good shape and just needs some elbow grease and carefull paint removal on centers to reveal the original finish.
