Cool Re: Live from Baytown TX-Lucas Oil Drag Racing D4 Race

Yeah,,me too. The pictures looked great a couple days ago, but now it says something about bandwidth. Clicking on it doesn't help. Hopefully they'll come back. there were some really nice shots on there. Thanks anyway.

Ok I had to pay photobucket for some more bandwith. I guess I exceded my monthly allotment.LOL

Here are some more pics. I tried my best this weekend. Sorry about not to many reports on what everyone else was doing. After hurting my engine I didn't feel like doing much. I'm the rare guy that runs a SSer on a budget so I maybe down for awhile with this.

Ed,,,bummer about having to pay more to Photobucket,,what a racket they've got going.I didn't realize that is how it works. Thanks so much for all the shots.
Sorry to hear about the mechanical problems, especially with a '66 Nova, as I had one many years ago,,,still miss banging gears in that thing. Take care.

One of the cars that you took a picture of has been around for a long time. The black 68 Chevelle station wagon run by the Doughty Bros. was runner up at the 1975 Sportsnationals with a 6 cylinder. It was run by Eugene Chaisson. Then in 1977 it won the Cajunnationals as a V8 car with Sammy Pizzolato driving. Also won 1983 Cajun nationals with Daniel Doughty driving. The Doughtys have run it for the longest with great success. Great older car with history. Great job on the pictures Thanks.

Ed's Chevy II has been around since the mid-70s too. It was originally owned by Troy Humphrey, Pro Stock racer Ronnie Humphrey’s dad.

It also won Pomona in 1975 with Eugene driving it.

I would also bet that it has more trips down the quarter then any other class car. It has never had a year off and when not at a points or Nats , it is racing most weekends bracket racing since.
