Event Coverage !!! El Mirage Season Opener Pic's !!! May 18-19

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Bad Bob, May 19, 2013.

  1. He told me he was drag racing...and he forgot his jets and would have to run what was in it.
     
  2. I talked to him before he ran today. He said the bike was running great. never saw the 57 in line

    Craig-saw the car run but forgot my radio,so I didn't hear how he did.
     
  3. You're kind of a Hit-n-Run guy. I turned around and you were GONE! Hope your back stays well.

    H E L L O !!!!!
    THIS is where your hobby started, people!
    I can't believe so few "hot rodders" "view" stories and photos of El Mirage.
    How can you advance a hobby if you don't understand how and where it started?

    Hey Bob, good meeting you at the start of the day on Saturday. I was surprised to see your truck there. I'll post a few pics of my own to share later. Hopefully there arent any doubles!

  20. Thanks for sharing the picks!!

    The video from mctim64 was just outstanding; I just love the sound from the Y-block.
    We had a 62 F100 292 4 on the floor a couple years ago, remember the sound when cranking. But the sound this beast create when the throttle opens,, it’s just amazing!!! Thanks!!!

  24. That was before I shaved....
     
  25. Thanks for the pics. I appreciate you taking the time and effort to do this for all the events you go to.

    El Mirage is on my list of places to hit someday. With limited vacation time not used with family I use it to go to Bonneville.
     
  26. Well said Mazooma1, that's why so many people try to redefine "traditional", they haven't really studied the history first.
