Bob Bilbow, Dr. Lyndwood, said that he expects 8 Lyndwood dragsters to attend, including Stan Shoppel's twin flathead powered Eliminator!! Plus other surprises I'm working on to attend!!!

Less than two weeks away, who's going ? Lyndwood shop party is Fri nite, go to Lyndwood Eliminators social group for details.

 

I will be there with my Merc... I cant wait!!!!

 

Stan's Lyndwood alone is worth the price of admission.

 

I will be there!

 

A little something from the 60's. Ron Capps' crew chief Tim Richards was a PDL regular and a fierce Super Stock competitor with this Plymouth known as Taxi II. He had the "neutral start" thing figured out for sure and won often.

 

Another Tim Richards pic. Anyone know what became of Taxi II ?

 

Joe Orem's SBC powered D/MP Plymouth coupe, Bob Steiner's Lyndwood Chassis SBC altered. Steiner will be with us again this year. Anybody know where to find Joe Orem ?

 

Are there any details on trailer parking?? We used to race there in the 60s with some of the same cars. We made the first one and trailering and parking were a mess. Off site would be great, as our cars all still run and race.

Nice photos,Jack.
Used to read about PDL in EDN along with all the northeast tracks.
Good to see Ron Abbotts Hellzapoppin car there.
Bob Schlagel(spell)bought and restored it.Old Dover guy.

 

Met those Hellzapoppin guys at York and they were part of our Pocono Crew.

 

Thanks to everyone who came and braved the bad weather, and everyone else who helped in one way or another....BTW mazdaslam took a peoples choice award this year again, took one in 2009 also.....his Merc is a piece of Fine art!!!!

Thanks Charlie. I will always come to this show. I love it!!

 

Thanks for the pics, Jack. I missed it this year. It was great to see the pic of Hellzapoppin. Haven't seen it since Atco in the early sixties.

 

Great pix, Jack. Thanks for posting. Wish I had gotten there a little earlier when it was a bit drier.
