Road & Track 1 (Drag Racing Part 2)

... those guys at 'Pittsburgh Raceway Park' (PRP) know how to put on a show - 'Nostalgia Weekend' classic car show and drag racing - very well paced afternoon of fun - following are some "hot rods" ...never was fond of the term "Hi-Performance" or "Muscle Car"... "back in the day", if ya' pissed off some "old fart", or better yet, the "police" (had a few - "sorry officer"), or "cops" (had more than a few - "I wasn't doin' nuthin' man!!!"), or "fuzz" (ya' don't say nuthin' - just hand 'em a pack of 'Zig Zag' rolling papers when they ask to see your license - know a guy who did that once) -  either way, you were a "XX!! hot rodder!!" (OK - fixed it) ... by the way - don't know any of the guys/gals who built these machines - salute them all - sorry we don't have room for everyone... also not going to pretend that we know what we're lookin' at all the time...

... like this 'Street Rod' (30's Ford?)...

...  50's Studebaker - great 'primer'd' paint job - all race cars should "look as such"...

... 60's Plymouth (Fury?)...

... w/ "blown" Hemi(?)... maybe...

... this is an easy one -  Pontiac GTO - 6 cylinder - (10/06 - I know it's not - was actually makin' fun of myself - man, right over the head of some!!)...

... now we're talkin' (prejudiced Chevy guys here) - '55 thru '57 - somewhere in there...

... '55(?) Chevy...

... now we're really talkin' - '70(?) Nova SS - owned two of 'em ('70 396 screamer and '73 350 sled - see '400 Horsepower Nostalgia')...

... another street rod - just back from a 'time trial run'...

... rear engine 'rail dragster' and some "rubber"...

... Chevy Camaro SS - guess'n '69...

... another 'rail dragster'... engine (??)...

... 50's Chevy 'Bel Air' wagon -  very cool, but not crazy about the "low profile pimp tires"...

... '40's 'Willys' (?)...

... Whoa!! - '65 - '67 Chevy Chevelle SS - 396...

... sayin' '57 Chevy - beautiful paint...

... '30's - '40's Roadster (??) - very cool...

... and another....

... best of the best - gorgeous '40's - '50's(?) Chevy Pick-up...

... with (apparent) high-rise/dual quad intake!!... small block??...

... gonna' end it here for now (keep it short)... been out of this stuff for over thirty years... visited the track last year with slightly ailing (at the time) 'buddy Matt' and was "pleasantly surprised" - never expected to see nuthin's changed!...
