The last few pictures are of the Rupp & Steffey Cougar. Maynard Rupp is my neighbor across the street. I'll bet he will get a charge out of these pictures.

I get a kick out of the trailers and tow rigs.

I remember the old LaPlace Dragway which if I remember correctly held the first NHRA Cajun Nationals before it was moved to State Capitol in the early eighties. We ran soem points meets there back around 1977 or so. This pics are all from a little before my time at LaPlace but I do remember seeing some of these cars at other tracks Cool pics and some good memories.

Now that's when racing was fun, each car looked different and had it's own personality!

It was good to see Fritz and the CKC boys come up from San Antonio with one of the three Chevy II funny cars.

Thanks for the memories,
