You can call Jim Howe at 402-306-5015 and he can advise as to who will be there.
It is on the schedule.
In addition to the geezer races, there will be a true box and no box gambler if you want to play for real.

Is this really a race or is this an opportunity to get together and drink beer (that's not all bad).... I am 1,400 miles away and would like to go....my dilemma is: do I take the Dart.....do I take the Roadrunner that I used to race at Cornhusker...(trailer is not big enough for both)...........or do I take nothing and just drink beer and bench race with my old friends....

Advise is welcomed..

Would love to see your RR race back here in the midwest

My boss is going to show his car, a 1967 SS 350 Camaro that was built into a drag car in 1969 and raced at Cornhusker, Scribner , Thunder Valley and has even made a few trips down the track at Mid America Motorplex for Friday night street races. His car is nicknamed Capn Crunch's Super Camaro. Not sure if he plans to race as he has a few more things he needs to do before its race ready

If you enlarge the photo there are names painted on the panel between the back and side glass. We would like help in figuring out the names so when the car gets re painted the correct names go back on the car.

Capn Crunch will be at the Old Geezers Car show/Drag Race August 25th 2013, lets hope I can talk my boss into racing it down the track

Everytime I run across a photo of a car that has raced at Cornhusker I try and add it where it belongs, on this forum. If anyone has photos of the track, cars that have raced and people that have driven or had something to do with midwest drag racing in the late 60s early 70s I invite you to add your photos here, that way all of can enjoy them

Well, it is pretty much official, we will not be going back to the Geezers race. Both cars are ready, but we have had way too many unexpected expenses recently.....

I hope everyone has a great time..............and I certainly would like to be there....maybe next year, God willing.

My boss Steve Britten raced his 67 Camaro, nicknamed Capn Crunch Super Camaro. Alot of the old school racers remembered the car from back in the day. Tom Grosso even got on the loud speaker when my boss brought the car into the staging lanes, and announced the return of a peice of midwest racing history. It was very cool.
