Rob, thank you so much for making this all happen again. Really looking forward to next years 2 day event!
First of all thanks to everyone, none of the work I do pays off with out the support from you the racers and fans..You need to thank yourself for the results.For my life time friend Rick Carrell thanks for letting me express myself and the joy it brings to see everyone having a good time.. Now lets have a few photo's from the 5th annual Hot Rod Reunion at Ardmore Dragway. Friday morning and the waiting was over. Grandson Race say's....Here is the BLUE MAX! 240 Gordie was on hand just in case Ronny missed the exit to the track. The CSGA guys were on hand, and the boss Sam Woodard & his Gold Thasher Henry J proved all the lond night thrashing worked. Maybe you just love to Cackle I want name any names but (Elmer Fudd) broke the brakes on the Gas Rhonda car Thursday afternoon making it a show car only. The Super Stock class looked alot like the 71 Springnationals field We are still working on that Nostalgia Pro Stock class maybe next year. The there was the popular Jr. Fuel class. (16 cars) more than at a NHRA event! Maybe your speed is Blown! The gasser shoot out boys Thanks to all our Texas racers And our Oklahoma winners.....I THINK! + See all my photo's posted in a few days on Facebook at Rob Ragland
Rob, we had an awesome time! Thank you so much for taking such good care of the gassers, this is one of the reasons we like coming there. Only wish our Anglia could have made elimination rounds, but unfortunately the starter had a serious malfunction in the staging lane and we were done. Too bad too, because we were running our best 1/8th mile passes ever!!!
