Awesome pics. Reminds me of the old NHRA track on a abandoned air strip up in Orange, Mass. that I used to race at back in the 60's....Sanford, Maine... Charlestown, Rhode Island....Connecticut Dragway---old New England tracks that are long gone...This sport sure has changed. Thanks for bringing back some great memories...

Did you notice all the smiles on all the racers faces. They all had a good time.

If I could jump as high as the starter I would still be playing basketball.

Thanks for the pictures.

Can anybody ID the track where most of these shots were taken....with the uphill shut-off area? The layout reminds me of 75-80 in MD but the surrounding geography and what looks like the "Miss Roanoke" trophy queen makes me think VA of course. Could that be Culpepper,VA or a track that has closed? That shot of the chopped #29 B/C car reminds me of Suffolk.....Wow, I've got to get away from this computer.....
