For those old enough to remember, the repeated Sunday-Sunday-Sunday was used in an old am radio station ad for Raceway Park NJ or Island Dragway. It was run on a popular station, 77WNBC with Cousin Brucie, Bruce Morrow. Maybe another old teenager out there can help me out with which track used this repeated Sunday in their ad?

Many tracks around the country picked up that gimmick. Detroit Dragway for one. It was common enough that it has appeared in various comedy parodies.

I went over with my son. He took his '85 to see what it could do. He only ran the 2 time runs and we went home. We had heard that it was Corvette's only and didn't know about where to meet or how to stage. This was our first trip to actually participate. Regaurdless we had fun and will be back for the next one and help us establish our own lane. :dancer01:

I sat in the 2nd set of grandstands @ OSWD, and tried getting pix of every Corvette that llined-up for a run during the first session yesterday:
I know that I 'missed' a gorgeous Blue C5/C6 (? ) when the car in-front of you broke on the burn-out, and the camera accidentally shut-off.....

Here are the pix I got:
if the pix is of your car, feel-free to claim it!!!!!

..... and finally, Dan Warren made his return to the 1/4-mile asphalt wars, after having new plumbing installed, recording a very-nice .044-second Reaction Time on his first run:

afterwards, das Funk-meister sipped Fresca while sitting in his 'Big-Boy' chair, scratching his nose with his middle-finger.....

 

[SteveK]

Does anyone plan on attending Orlando Speed World on Sunday, Jan. 14th?

Does anyone plan on attending Orlando Speed World on Sunday, Jan. 14th?

..... there was 'talk' about getting together that day @ OSWD, but I haven't heard any confirmation yet:
I think Fuzzy Dice may be going regardless, as he is getting ready for a big race in early February at Bradenton.

 

[litevette]

I'll be there if you guys will!!!

 

[SteveK]

My son wants to take his '85 back over. He hopes to have some drag slicks for it by then and wants to see what difference they make. Our plans are to be there. Look forward to meeting the rest of you there.:wavey:

 

[litevette]

Sounds like he's "hooked"!:yesnod:
