    @lumpy 63...thank you for the set of awesome pics. Compliments to the Photographer...was that your handiwork? Beautiful shots.

    Those weren't taken with a Brownie that's for sure...

    Hope you still have a few boxes to go through yet...;)

    Exactly where was this drag strip? Looks a little like an airport with the red/white striped fuel tanks in some of the pic backgrounds. Cool looking tower. I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

    Those are an absolute treasure find! Not Many pics of action at Ramona. IIRC, it ran for only a few
    years and faded away when Carlsbad opened in 65/66.
    Thanks for sharing!
