    I trust you're not expecting to see much racing at the Pod unless you're going to be here for a month or three yet! It's bloody freezing :)

  11. I had shoes like those... we called them "Beatle Boots" but it was more appropriate to wear steel toe shoes at the races.
     
  12. What a great video! HRP

    Wow, a little trip down memory lane. The dragster in the picture is our twin engine nail head buick, original built by Ivo and the one in my av, We were a part of the 1967 US drag team that went to England and ran at Santa Pod.
