    Had a good friend by the name of Barrie Gardner who was a member of the club in early-mid 60's, he lived there in Burbank. I had saved a club card from him for many years, but not to be found today. I have also wondered if there was any info out there on the club. Barrie was killed in an auto accident in Glendale area in 1969. FYI, he attended Coalinga Jr. College with a few friends from Burbank in the 1960-1962 era. I seem to remember that they ran a car at the drags in SoCal area.

    Amazing how many clubs were in the small city of Fresno in the early days.....I have 12 Hot Rod plaques of Fresno but no Accelerators? I do collect Fresno Car plaques if anyone is selling.....good luck Mr. Burton
