Yep, we were there, pitted next to the man himself, Bruce Larsen. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif[/img] Man, did we have a blast.

Man, do those pictures bring me back to the early '70s. My older brother used to get stuck "babysitting" me when I was 9 or 10. Sundays meant a trip to New England Dragway. I blame him for my "habbit". You wouldn't have to ask me twice to take that down the old 1/4 mile in a silver suit and goggles !!!!! That is one bad funny car, old school style.
