Everyone it is the old Sanford Dragstrip. Ebern you were the first to respond.
Tracy you guys and gals (Doc's daughter) sure did wear down that red clay pit area. Arnold we were trying to figure out the name of the car and who drove it. Was the car "Law and Order"? Bob Rice, I had forgotten about Holly Ridge? At the East Coast Reunion I am going to mention that track to Bret Kepner. He has started a registry for all of the drag strips. As I understand from our last conversation North Carolina had a high ranking for the number of dragstrips in our state. Now to HEMIPARTS, ladies and gentlemen, this young man is kind of close and has to listen to all of the old stories and looked at the photos. He has had the opportunity to meet and talk with many of the legends in the sport of drag racing. Last year, on the Thursday night before the reunion, he had an opportunity to experience the history of our sport first hand as the driver of one of the most famous mopars to run down the track. This car had not seen the track in years. This was a match race (remember those) against a Sox and Martin car. When he climbed out of the car,after the first round, his comment was, "I don't know how you guys lived as long as you have, driving these cars." Last edited by chris3racing; 10-04-2009 at 07:44 AM.
