This is What you call drawing a Crowd

Herbjur,
That is not bragging. That is showing pride in your accomplishments as a family and that is a big deal. Congratulations to your son and the team on his win!! Awesome to see history in the making.

Chris -- Wow -- Easter Sunday and mobbed .Yesterday was beautiful here in the Northeast and an event like this could have been held -- maybe at Atco or the 'Grove . Anything would have been better than sitting with my son-in-law watching the grass grow ..............Great win by the way .

Exactly the same thing happens every year @ Beaver Springs Dragway when they have the York US 30 reunion. They also feature a $5000 stock/super stock combo. Beautiful country setting in Pa. Almost a step back in time. The second weekend in July this year. They even had a flag start session for the old gassers and modified cars. Wall to wall people having a good old time @ the track. Hope to see a bunch of you there.

Congrats Herb and family, I was late 3rd round. The track hooked all day and the laser grinding worked. You Carolina and Va. guys should come out for the combo races if at all possible.

Roxboro has their old track manager back Allen Carpenter, not only did he get the job done in a decent amount of time but the track was perfect all day. Our Jr varied a total of .005 to the 330 all day. We ran 6 8.47's and throught the day. The combo start I think the 2nd Saturday of May.
