"Our Mission for 2009"

A number of things happened in 2008 that forced me to focus my efforts on personal and family matters and I was not able to reach the goals I had set for 2008. I now have most of that behind me and have even more of a commitment to preserving the history of the sport I love. New things will be coming online at a much faster pace now and 2009 will be our best year yet so

CHECK BACK OFTEN and TELL YOUR FRIENDS

You can be an important part of this website by sharing your history, memories, or photos with us. We want to preserve all this for the generations to come so they will know the people, places and things that gave birth to Drag Racing. If you were a part of drag racing anywhere in the country or have a family member that was, we want to hear all about it. If you were a photographer, either amateur or pro back in the day and would like to see your work displayed for all the world to see, just send me an e-mail at 1320history@charter.net or call me at 423-839-2014. No matter how large or small your collection of photos and memories are, they are important to the overall history and we want them. Please share your memories, photos, and films before it is too late
