Cars and Zebras caught my first ever time on a drag strip!!!

I raced Charles Lombardi in his 409 monster!!!! (Later a frost plug leaked on his engine and he spun at least 4 times and hit the guardrail lightly. I was next up and backed the hell away for a while)

The under hood coverage is of Chris Smetana’s Powder Blue Holiday Coupe... :-) at least its a 1969 W31 :-)

The guy was nice enough to show my improvement over the weekend as my first run was a shakedown at best....

Amy (Beautiful, Cutlass Loving Wife) and I had a visit with the Stagers.


Physically distant Post Covid visit.


It was really nice to catch up and see how they are doing. Al spent some time in hospital but is home and being well taken care of by Lynn!!


It rained while we were there but it cleared up for the ride home.


I also took the family to my Father In Laws on Fathers Day.


The car is getting some enjoyable use and the RamRod shifter is just a whole lot of fun!!!
