Sounds cool to me, I wish I would've been able to see it for myself (even though I was only 11yrs old at the time), but I was growing up in Denver and didn't even find out what drag racing was until Apr. 3, 1972, thru a "Car Craft" magazine that I saw in a grocery store. This date stands out because the Sunday night before (Easter no less), I lost my older (half) sister (Deborah) at age 18, due to an untreatable blood clot in her lungs...
