1st Annual Dover Dragstrip Nostalgia Drags, Island Dragway
Bob Krosky brought out his 1968 Firebird. It's powered by a 400 Ram Air II backed by a Muncie M22...
Out back is a 10-bolt rear with 4.33 gears. Bob's Verdoro Green beauty rides on period-correct Cragars front and back.
Cool lettering; love the highlights!
If anyone doubts that our sport is a family affair, this picture will set them straight. That's Jim Conte Jr. on the left with his dad Jim Sr., both from Pearl River, NY. Jim Sr. owns this gorgeous 1969 C/SA Mustang driven by son Jim Jr...
Here's the Conway racing family of Morristown, NJ: sons Bobby and Sean, father Bob Sr. in the driver's seat, and son Patrick. The Impala is powered by a 409.
The Conway Impala runs as good as it looks; here it is launching away at Island Dragway.
I get butterflies just looking at it. Hmmm, could be in the Dodge's future...
Dave is Island's head of security. He'll know better next time to be more specific when asking for two cones at the concession stand.
Here's ED, Drag Race Results' favorite poster. See, he's not a bad guy. He's even waving at me. Then I realized he was waving me away.
Here's ED leaving. Quickly.
