    ...attended the last day of Sick Week at Byron Dragway in Byron, Illinois on friday,...here's a few HAMB friendly cars.
    The Two-Lane Blacktop clone was built by (semi-famous)Richard Ruth, who built the cars used in the movie.
    He was at Byron and I had a nice visit with him , and got his autograph on a 5 gallon (empty) racing fuel can.

    Thanks for the photos.
    I missed the event because I was at the Hot Rod Reunion in Bowling Green.

    Looks like it was a very busy week in the Midwest for hot rodders! That drag stripe never disappoints
