Wow, so cool! In 1957 I was 8 years old and dad drag raced for the first time with his '57 Pontiac Star Chief at Sampson. Paul Jackson was running the races, the same person who founded what is now South Butler Nostalgia Dragway, but back then known as Savannah. Dad was a regular at Savannah and filled our home with lots of trophies. Paul also ran drags at the old Dunkirk Air Base and, I believe, Erie PA.
Burt Reminds me of the drags At Niagara airport drags Strip back in the sixties. Everyone Looks like they Had a good time. May be you can bring your race car next year. Enjoyable thanks Mike

Thanks for watching, Mike. Sounds like a plan.
Great video Burt! I'll try to make it out if they have it next year..Is it pre 1960? I have a 58 ford.
I don't know the criteria for entering the race but it sounds like the '58 ford might work.
