Re: COLUMBUS COUNTY DRAGSTRIP in NC
I remember Dell Britt showing off popping wheelies on the return road with his elCamino and busting the oil pan.
I remember Buddy Hickman running through the fence at the other end of the track with his BMP 63 vette. I remember racing there a few times before the track closed. Always had a good time. Chip |

Re: COLUMBUS COUNTY DRAGSTRIP in NC
There are a couple of pictures on here of my dads old Thames panel "Southern Thunder". He looked at them and remembered that day well. He said Bobby Warren beat him at 4 cars. I wasn't around in those days but I'm lucky to get to hear a lot of war stories from J.W. Taylor, Bobby Brown, Thomas Cashwell, and my dad. They have tons of good stories from the 60's and 70's.
