I hope it continues
Shows up w a dually and a car trailer, not a city. Wayy cool!!!!

Anyone see qualify show? Watching now and Leah Pritchett faced off with Papa John the pizza man on a head up drag race at Indy. Pair of camaros. All for charity. This is all good to get people out of the stands and on track I think.
Heck, I rented a uhaul car trailer to attach to my truck to yellowbullet Nats.
But got there.
Gotta start somewhere.......

We started with a 1/2 ton pickup and a tow bar a very long time ago.

As a way to support my racing addiction I made and sold tow hubs....

A friend made me a set of towing hubs from some broken axles I had a few of before Henry's Machine started making axles for my '56 Chevy Jr Stocker. Those and '56 Chevy front hubs, and stock '56 front tires & wheels. Those and, after I learned longer tow bars (my last one was 6' long) towed smoother, and ten degrees positive caster made me able to back it up like a trailer. Went down the highway smoother than my first trailer. Other than putting that stuff on & off, it towed nicer than the trailer. Wasn't a bad deal.

Ed,

I still have a set of Henry's axels with a MOPAR inner spline and MOPAR side gears in the posi unit that's in my 1962 Corvette with the stock housing the way it was back in the day.....

The Corvette restoration will happen after I stop racing..

Funny this should come up. I've been thinking about cleaning mine up and towing to Bowling Green next year for the Hot Rod Reunion...I think many would get a kick out of seeing that again after all these years.
