Here's Ray Head at my home track, Brainerd Optimist Dragstrip in the eighties.

THAT is probably one of the coolest photos I have ever seen. Think the starting line was sagging under all that weight?

Look at that 283 put some wrinkle in those tires!

Do you find yourself wondering if the pictures of todays race cars will be as cool to look at in twenty years?? Probably not the dragsters, but what about the stock and super stock cars?

Maybe I am showing my age; but one of the best slogans ever was on the deck lid of every car that Tasca Ford campaigned from the early '60s to the early '70s - "Suivez Moi" which in French means "follow me". Two more of my favorites are "Grounds for divorce", and "With my wife's permission".

Some of the older guys who raced at Englishtown in the "old days" will remember Benny the butcher.His car had "Nobody can beat Benny's meat" on it.

"On a quiet night,you can hear a ford rust" My wood shop teacher in high school had that licensce plate on the front of his beat up old chevy truck,always made me crack up laughing.The messed up part about the whole thing was that he actually was a ford guy.
