    WOW! When I last looked at this thread, it was on page 1010, I come back 3 days later and it's 1016. I can't thank you all enough for sharing your memories (and mine). I'll bet there's millions of guys, racers and race lovers alike, who don't even know this thread exists. Too bad.

  6. No it wasn't and no you didn't. Go back to those pages to see who it was ....
     
  7. I love those old photos with the date stamped on the side. They work great in a photo album or for scanning.

    Ya know. I saw the Pirhana at the CHRR back in '99 and never saw it again. At the time it looked pretty good, just heavily aged. I'd never seen it back in the 60's. Is there a link to see the work in progress?

    Before even zooming in on "Rain for Rent" TF ride, new right away what ride it was. Appeared in so many mags back in the day. What did that logo mean? Was it a business of some sort (i.e. sponsor)?

  15. Irrigation equipment company.

    Looks to me to be US30 Dragstrip near Gary, Ind. "Where the great ones run!"... or used to as it closed decades ago.
    This is my first post and it's probably all I'll be able to contribute judging by the depth and breadth of experience here, you guys are awesome!
    I just want to say "hello" and "thanks" to all, and that this is the best thing I have ever found on the internet!!!

    Glad you enjoy it and thanks for the tip about US30.
    Now go to the top of the forum page and write a few words about yourself in the intro section.
    Welcome to the HAMB.
