Streets' quote was taken from another thread. But, speaking of old drag strips... here's a link to my area's old track. Old radio commercials and some other interesting information about the "good ole days".

There's an embedded mp3 sound track in the home page, so it may take a little while to load.

Streets,

If you end up burning that CD, I'll send you a blank so you can make me a copy... and I'll play it as background music while I'm working these crazy hours to keep my little company afloat!

The NHRA is coming to Memphis this weekend, and I'm going to try to sneak in a little "ground shaking excitement" if I can.

There is a DJ who has turned that record into a disco dance album along with other stuff like Elvis' "A little less talkin". Called Junkie XL. I went lookin for that 33 and found the redone cd. Looks like we are not the only ones impressed by sounds of the dragraces!

Such a cool photo...
