1- Do an intro! Who the fuck are you? Why are you spamming me?

2- I'll let Zombie know you decided to steal the Dragfest name. He'll love it. The whole Palooza thing is played out, so you can fight with Perry Ferrell about that one..

3- 1/8 th mile sucks. Its not a miniature anything..just a kiss from a prostitute.

4- Cackling is gay. Don't let your friends do it either.

5- Miniature what? 1975? I think they ran 1/4 mile in 1975...seriously.

Carry on,
Spike

 

if Mr. Spike can not attend I will go in his place..Thank You for the invite... Bobby..

 

hey spike to start with I know a couple Spikes and i think they'd be pissed for you using there name to start with, then I see where you from, so that means your a f'n yankee, so how gives a chit what you think, and if you new anything about drag racing, you'd know one of the oldest drag strips in the country is George Rays in Ar. I was draging there in 1966, George passed away a few months ago but strip is still going, and for dragfest, i guess you upsit because its not a gayfest,guess thats why you said crackling was gay, by the way do you have any kind of drag race up there that you go to for old timers that raced back in the 50's and 60's most liky not, well these guys did one hell of a job putting on the turkey drags and now we have a chance to go do it again, thank god for people that want to have fun-bet you don't know what that is, my hats off to the pussom crew and all that are doing something for us real hot rod guys, so from the book of Blue, kisss my azz you unhappy sob,

 

and yes i misspelled a few words

 

Thanks guys for the support as this was just a friendly invite and in no way a intrusion into your("spike") self centered ego driven world. So i can honestly say i hope that you "spike" (big bad name) do NOT attend our show as that would certainly put a damper on the day and take away from what we love and that is traditional hot rods and drag racing and hangin' out with other people that enjoy the same thing.

 

hell Jr. do a name ck at the gate, then
(1) call me I'll smack him with my cain
(2) give him a 1/8 mile drag--on his azz
(3) just make him wear place card(I'll make it )that says I'm spike, and turn him loose in the crowd
(4) ALL of the above

 

Fully agree with that theory....but i doubt we have to worry about him showing because if he showed up he would show just how little of a hot rodder he truly is

 

Back To The Top for Mr. SPIKE..

 

spike is a well respected hotrod photographer/writer who drives the shit out of his hotrods. he has worked for a number of magazines including cover shots for rod & custom. regardless of his "crabbyness" regarding the use of the dragfest name, you might want to just let this dead dog die.

and yes, there are a lot of different people using dragfest now days. the first i heard of it was bruce larsons dragfest. bruce is a rad dude, and puts on a great show.

i dont usually reply to the holiest of hotrodders like some of you bitches on here but possum jr is a real good friend of mine and a jesters club member besides spike your probaly not as big a badass as you think so shut your foul mouth and go bother someone else any ways its a frickin hot rod show you can drag at not like anybody said anything about your mom grow a pair prick and dont bother comin to the south we have better manners than you.

 

Thanks for the invite man. Geez, who pissed in Spike cornflakes?

 

to reply to zombie on the whole "respected hot rodder thing". No true hot rodder would dog and disrespect a fellow hot rodder who they dont even know and badmouth there show because they dislike the name. No mattter how successful of a photographer or writer this "spike" doesnt sound like anybody worth respecting and as for me he will get no respect from me.

 

hey jr I'll be there for sure ......... oh and welcome to the hamb...glad to see a young guy interested in this hobby and not a ricer with a fart can exhaust..

 

thanks man, good to know theres atleast a few nice guys on the hamb. I guess not everybody has something stuck up there butt

 

You know what? an apology is in order. You are correct. I had absolutely no business saying what I said to someone I don't know. For that I am sorry. I really should keep my opinions to myself, especially when it's not asked for. I'm sure you'll have a great event and hope everyone has fun and stays safe. I was totally out of line and it won't happen again. Sorry if my yankee ass offended anyone.

Spike

 

The bigger man wouldn't have said anything to begin with.. I'll be happy just to get the taste of foot out of my mouth...

Spike

 

Hmmm, might have to put this on the schedule. I'm only a couple of hours away.

 

Spike you have let all of us on the board know that you are a gentleman...Bobby.. I will add this..If you would like to come to this fuction I will pay your addmission and help out on your fuel cost..

 

Hey Spike, been there done that. We all have those days. I'm kinda used to the taste of foot.

 

We had a great time last year and had a great turnout and it only looks to be getting bigger. Its a sign that nostalgia racing and hot rodding is still alive in the mid-south

 

I'm gonna try to make it down there.

How strict is tech going to be? Can something less than a hard core NHRA racecar get on the track?

 

Tech? no tech lol....... this is a true old school track there wont be any inspection and pretty much the only restricition is cars running 7.99 or faster(1/8) are required t where helmets. Other than that its pretty much good ole grudge racing fun and saturday afternoon the hot rod bracket race. We would love to have you!

 

there are pictures on my profile in my photo album of last years show if youd like to see the track and the kinda hot rods we have at our show

 

20+ years ago, I raced there.

We used to have a good time down there. It was a lot of fun. They didn't get all bent out of shape if you happen to cross the starting line while doing a burnout (funnycar style burnouts were almost encouraged). It was a lot more fun than memphis motorsports.

I saw Rob Vandergraff match race the yellow Thundercraft 57 chevy top sportsman car there (1987?). That was a whole lot of car for a small southern dragstrip.

Good times for sure.

 

it is a great track with great owners. We race there every saturday and we have a BLAST we never have a problem out of anyone down there.Its like a family down there everybody knows everybody and everybody helps everybody.Ive never been anywhere thats as much fun to race. They still have pro mod match races 3 or 4 times a year a that is a wild show on that ol' track. Even though its a small little country track its the best hookin' track ive ever been on it put motorsports park to shame!

 

Only a little over a week til' the big show and the forecast so far is looking great low 80's and so far no chance of rain. Were gonna have a big time!!

 

Any guesses as to how many cars will be there?

 

From the response weve had so far its lookin like anywhere from 150 to 300. we would be happy with anything over 150

 

Is that the track that Joe Elmore profiled on Horsepower T.V.?
