So, we've had some time to feel awful for these guys who've had these ridiculous wrecks lately. With that: If you're my age, do you remember going to the track and your heroes flat-towed their race cars in, or had rail dragsters on single-axle open trailers behind station wagons?

Yep. You knew a street-strip car by the tow bar brackets on the front. Next was funny cars on ramp trucks. I had a FED in a crude homebuilt trailer, was one of very few enclosed trailers at the track.

Or if you were poor/brave/dumb ( choose one or all three) like me, you drove it to the track and prayed you didn’t break anything… 😳

Yep again, remember all those little clusters of tires and toolboxes around the pits where the trunk got emptied and the slicks got installed and the headers opened. And NObody stole or fucked with anything.

Yup, wash, rinse, repeat…. They are all so predictable it gets boring even attempting to converse with them… 🙄

3 days? 🖕🖕🖕, one for each day.
For nearly 38 years I had somebody by my side. I don’t need anybody But It would be nice to get out with someone from time to time. Then I remember how I don’t want to ask for permission/ acceptance or learn a new family or raise an adult. I can rent love or buy it drinks.

Tow Hubs? Anybody make tow hubs? We used Rambler spindles and hubs bolted to a plate that attached with the rear axle lug nuts, the free spinning hub with a skinny wheel and tire rolled without turning the race car's rear axle so you didn't need to remove the driveshaft to tow your race car.

Tow hubs first thing, won a grand one night @ GLD, bought a new open trailer for 800 bucks on Monday. Think it was 1976.
