NMCA Good OR BAD ?

[Ron Brown]

Larry, the stickers do have to be in certain area for contengencie( ?) money. Have been going to several of their races for the past few years and they run as good a show as you would ever want. they have several class' that your hot rod could fit in. So check it out, however this weekend in Bowling Green is setting up to be a wash out based on the coming weather.

nah, just back to the golden age, when PEOPLE drove the cars. I hope to try the NCMA soon.

In the '60's and through the '70's I raced 4 speed Mopars with a slick shifted 883 with no electronics and never broke anything except rearends (8 3/4's) It was the best racing I have ever done.

I've raced with the NMCA guy's and what a great bunch. The racing is fun the people are great and there is good competition.

Doug's father, Dave, talked me into it and I wish I could thank him!

You'll have a good time, larry!

Eddie Rezac.... wow....

If not for you, and all your records in National Dragster, I'd never have known where WAHOO, NEBRASKA was!!! Seemed like you always held the record in whatever class you ran.... impressive!!!

It's great to see you on the board; now I'm not the oldest guy here (70 last Dec. 20.)

Don't be a stranger; you have a WEALTH of stories... I'm sure. I lived in Des Moines from '64 to '80, so I saw you race a lot...

Anyway, welcome to this board; it's a world apart... lol!

If it wasn't for your Dad, probably would be a lot less of us racing stickshifts.
Where you been hanging out? Thinking of dragging the Chevelle out again? I bet there are a couple of Div. 3 Moostangs that would be a heck of a match up with you. Shoot me an e mail let me know what you are up to. jimschaechter@earthlink.net

I dont know if i will drag out the Chevelle this year or not..I see theres a few mustangs out there in your division.I'll drop ya a line soon you can call me netime at the shop too I have one mustang in mind but that would take a 327 :P

It sounds like a good time, but it is just a bracket race. Why drive hunderes of miles to go to a bracket race when there are local tracks for footbrake and no electronic racing , and S/SS races where we can run'em like we do in the NHRA and IHRA. What is different about this racing than everything else? Racing against old cars with 500 inch engines and dual quads? Whats makes it better? Can anyone explain this to me?
