Cougars, Corvairs and Opels oh my! The ramp truck era was the best! Match races! Exhibition cars! Thanks a lot, NITROFC. Best post in at least a week.

 

CP ..I know YOU can relate to this better than most. I hope that we can revise some of these memories with current N/FC trend ...

 

Great pictures, thanks

 

Thanks Al. The Van Dyke Dodge Charger is sick. Slim

 

great video thanks

 

Great video and sound track! Thanks for posting that!

 

So cool. As a local I sure get nostalgic seeing the old tower and the trees around it.
Half expected to see me and Dad standing in one of those pictures.

 

Awesome! I want one!!! Thanks for that.

 

Brings back a lot of good memories of Lions Drag Strip and selling nitro and alky at M/T Speed shop with Jack Ewell.
