Title: Nostalgia Drags WSID - Pics added.
Post by: customFC on October 11, 2005, 10:12:52 AM
The Cruzin magazine Nostalgia Drags are on again this Sunday at WSID.
Hopefully it will be as big a buzz as the last event.
John and I are entered once again. (I'm still working on getting the day off work  >:()
The car display is also on again in the pits, so bring along the FE or FC to be a part of a cool day.
Racing starts at 9:00am.
See you there.
Regards
Alex

Hi all
           What a great day apart from the weather, got to see some very cool cars, quick times, heaps of tyre smoke. Big congrats to John & Alex who beat their best times each time they ran.

SRV, Excellent photos, I am glad someone took some good shots, I was to busy drooling over some of those classics :o :o :o.
Cheers
Glenn

Can you send me a high res of that 1.
Sorry we did not meet up.

Gotta say thanks to Craig Jordan for being the official photographer of some of these.
Some great cars came out of the woodwork, much like the last meet.

Hey Nicko.
The red FE van belongs to Greg Gleeson.
He has pulled out the 454 and dropped in a tough 427 as his plates suggest. The car has not seen much use lately, and was covered in a layer of dust. The car is legally registered with the big block and ran in the 13's.
The Ford woody wagon was running a six and the pics are a bit deceiving. The car sits really low at the back and high at the front even when standing still. I guess they set it up this way for weight transfer. It goes well, I think 15's, and can lift a front tyre.
Regards
Alex

     Thanks for the links, heaps of awsome cars at their best.

SRV
     Tell your wife I said thanks for the compliment on the wagon. Sorry I did catch up with you there, I was looking out for you in the black destroyers shirt in between looking at the drags & the cars.
Cheers
Glenn
