    WOW, our 5th year.............seems like yesterday we started with 60 entries and 500 spectators @ our first HOT ROD Gathering Race. Since then the last 4 years has taught and guided us to many improvements at Eagle Field. Improvements like our own bleachers, event layout and the biggest improvement of Dust Control from our Friends at KBK Oils (Fresno Ca.) has made each event consistantly better than the previous!
    This years Hot Rod Gathering will be no different with Special Guests the Lindstrom Family and their survivor Gasser Model A, NITRO Fuel Altereds, all the Run Whatcha Brung Action we're known for and a Off Topic event on Sunday that all Saturday Racers are welcome to enter. So join us for the "Best ONE Yet"! Rocky

    "Two Big Days"
    Which day other than Saturday. The flyer doesn't say. I assume it's Sunday?
    Which day(s) is the swap meet?
    Racing starts at 12:30...what time do the gates open?

    Yep, I cut the Off Topic Day which is Sunday out of the flier to play within the rules on the HAMB. Swap meet spaces both days with Saturday normally being the BIG Day. Gate opens 7AM both days with Racing Starting at 12pm on Saturday and 10AM on Sunday. Rocky

  15. Saw the Mob run in Spokane in the late 80s. It was a hell of a show with wild dry hops. That car really had the crowd going that night.

    NITRO Fuel Altereds are the Badest cars in the land bar none!!!!!!!!!!!

    Want see a show they put on the Best Show.

    The cars are a handful to drive but that's part of the show they put on.

    Only wish the show was not so far from Florida because I would love to see them run.

  17. 4 AA/FA's, $15.00. Great idea. Wild dry hops rule. Both types.:)

    Great Mitch, It'll be great to see your smiling face and I'm gonna need all the Support I can get :D

    The AA/FA's are the Baddest of the Bad and have a Great Following and my Fast Friend Brad Faria has put together a FANTASTIC Line-Up for the fans of Eagle field to enjoy............If an Eagle Field Fan can make this event they won't want to miss it, It may be their ONLY Chance to see cars of this caliber @ Eagle Field!

    The conditions have been explained the car owners/drivers, were going to do our best but we'll never be Famoso :D Most Eagle Field fans have never experienced NITRO............I don't think they'll ever be the same after just a AA/FA Burnout experience!

    Carol Dana (husband owns the MOB) sent me this with these words for her friend Steve Wallace...........
    "This is a great picture of THE MOB taken by Steve Wallace aka
    Nitroman who past away from massive heart attack last week. He was a great friend to alot of people in the drag racing family." Carol Dana
    I never met Steve although I had seen him at events and felt he was great for Drag Racing.............GodSpeed Steve! Rocky

    Received this from Chris Bennett...............

    "The Bennett & Fitzgerald Motorsports team are hoping to debut the re-creation of the Pure Heaven III Fuel Altered at the Eagle Field Drags this year. The Pure Heaven V Fuel Altered is the backup in case we miss the deadline. We are currently searching for a lenco 2-spd transmission, certifiable 3- disc slider clutch, and a certifiable bellhousing suitable for a big block chevy. We are very honored to be included as part of this historic event and we look forward to including either of our Pure Heaven Fuel Altereds."

    Eagle Field is excited to have the Bennett & Fitzgerald Pure Heaven team appear October 5th @ Eagle Field, Thank You Chris! AA/FA Fans will not want to miss this event that also includes the MOB, the WITCH Doctor, the JOKER, and the BEACH BOMB! Rocky

    We will have a Saturday night PIT Party in front of and inside the Historic Eagle Field Hanger with a local band busting out some music off the Hanger Stage. Should be a perfect atmosphere with the Fuel Cars being pitted on the Hanger apron in front of the Hanger and performing their maintenance after their 6pm run.
