    While surfing online for videos of Lions Dragstrip I found these clips from Pomona with "very" low view counts :eek: which I'm sure you all will agree needs to be fixed.

    I've never seen the Weber Cams Coupe in action before.

    Nope !
    The yellow "Weber Cams" coupe is Ben Rizzio's car , and as far as I know it's still sitting in his mom's garage !

    I was probably there when these were filmed.
    I started going to Pomona pretty regularly in 1964 .

    No, it did not. The "Weber" coupe belonged to Ben Rizio of Pomona. The car, exactly as it made it's last 1/4 mile p***, is in Ben's mother's garage. Ben and his mother have p***ed away. His daughter is in charge of Ben's estate, and the future of the coupe is uncertain.

    Nice films, Thanks, lack of development and what it is today is sobering, Frantic Four team is well represented, one of my favorite A/FD teams, weed burners too
    what's not to like, everyone youthful and vibrant, would have liked to know the outcome of the ChiZler & Frantic Four match. Anyone know?

    Good stuff, thanks. Do not know the Weber Cams car, what a beautiful hot rod!
