    Default Day of the Drags

    My friend and I went down to the Day of the Drags on Saturday. We had a great time.

    My friend still has his '23 T bucket with a 285 CI flathead that ran D/Altered back in the 1970's. Their best time with the car was a 12.01 and, IIRC, 120 MPH. He later had a AA alcohol dragster that ran over 200 MPH.

    Lots of Photos

    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    Thanks for the great pics, Doug

    Can't believe I couldn't make it, first time in years.

    For those interested in this "Run What You Brung" racing, the next one is in Denton.

    I was thinking that you went to a Gay Pride Parade.

    I think there were some there. The crowd was very eclectic and maybe part of the crowd was even heterogeneous. I actually did see one MX-5.

    You are welcome. I took about 500 shots. I was going to post about 300. Flickr would only let me post 126 on my free account. I'll post more later.
