Bev and me just watched this video in silence, both with a lump in out throat's. Now for those of you who know us will know that's an impossibility, but it's nevertheless true!
So a big thank you to all the guy's and gals who made Dragstalgia one of the best weekends Drag Racing I and many others have had for many a year. Let's hope we can now build on this and encoraging racers from years gone by to retreve and rebuild their old race cars and bikes from the garage rafters for one more ride up Santa Pods Raceways famous quarter mile.
I feel very proud to be involved in Dragstalgia. It's turning out to be everything we wanted it to be and more.
Hear hear!! But I can I just add a request that next year's event not be on the w/e of the 16-19th July, please? Pretty Please!!! Before or after is fine, but please, please, not that w/e!!
How ironic that way back in 1969 we were using an artists impression of Pure Hell to promote British drag racing at Santa Pod. Now 45 years later Pure Hell been seen by many racing at Santa Pod's Dragstalgia.
a few more shots from a great event, looking forward to next year, hopefully more US headliners, I'd love to see Tony Bartone going down the Santa Pod 1320
