What a week, drove down to California in my 1951 chevy to attend the Goodguys event in Pleasanton (pictures to follow). As with last year the NW BilletProof Drags falls on the Sunday of Goodguys which means either I miss it or drive all Saturday night after the show to attend. Well for a second year I did the drive. (felt like shit from very little of sleep but it was worth it). A benefit was running into a old High School hotrod buddy I had not seen in 25 yrs, Glad to see he still was into cars as he now owns a bitchin black 55 chevy. Have to thank Alan for a great show as well as those at the small but neat Riverdale Dragway in Toutle Wa. My club (the Misfits) had one car run, a dual quad hemi powered Model A roadster so it was fun as a group. the rest of our cars were just spectators... maybe next year I will add some power and see if I can Destroy a set of Hurst tires... on the drag strip Here is a link to my pictures http://public.fotki.com/boones/car_shows/billetproof-nw-drags/ Here are some picures The club unloading a little warming of the tires the most fun car to watch was this wheels high Willys there were all levels of racing going on.. from rails, high powered gasses, Model A bangers and at least one bike (including mini bikes which I missed getting any shots)
Thanks for posting the pics! Great action shot of Robbie's Willys too. I was on the other side filming that run I think.
