Outstanding collection of film and photos! I even saw a shot of the first car that I drove. Thanks much!

Thanks---where and when did you have the "A" with the doors welded shut? Sounds like some of the "stuff" that we ran out here in Montana!

troublemakeme,
You're more than welcome---but the real thanks should go to those who took the time to take movies and pictures with those "clunky" old 8mm home movie cameras and those "state of the art" Instamtic Kodaks! Fortunately some of that old technology has survived---but even better, there are those who are willing to dig them out and share them with those of us who love and appreciate those times that played such an important role in our lives.
PS: I'm curios to know who your Dad was and what he raced back in those days and whether he's in the movies.

I can't thank you enough for posting these old Hustler Drag Way videos, I was very young when it was closed down but I still remember going to watch my dad race.

Big,
My apologies, I meant no disrespect w/ the "Yawn" comment.
Now--- I'm confused in terms of your comment about your uncles dragster. Is it in one of the photos I posted of the 1964 Winter Nats? If so, which one is it? Regardless, good story about the chute failure during qualifying. Thanks

Hey Yawn...I know...one of these days I will be as talented as you.
Great Job here also great picture quality for 1964...Brings back many memories as a 11-year old hangin in the pits as my uncles tried to qulifly the dragster. They ended up on the far road to the ariport when the chute failed to open. Thanks
