Thumbs up Re: Orange Airport Drag Strip Reunion 9/10/11

Great weather and huge turnout for the Orange Drag Strip Reunion yesterday. Well over 300 vintage/current race cars, muscle and classic cars in attendance and spectator attendance into the thousands. I had the opportunity to speak at length with former C Modified Production Champion, Ralph Ridgeway. There were also a few other NHRA former Indy and other Nat. event and Div. 1 champs in attendance, such as Pete Murphy, ("Wapid Wabbit" '55 Chevy) former Indy E Gas champ. It was a great day for all in attendance, with Hot Rod Magazine and Speed Channel's Steve Magnante acting as master of ceremonies......Actually, the word was out yesterday that there are old New England Timing Association people currently working on bringing back 1/4 mile action at the Orange Airport facility.
