I'd like to hear the story behind this...




I've a similar one from 1974 or so, Menomonie, WI. The car club at UW Stout (then called Stout State) put on a car show on campus. Had cars parked down both sides of a narrow street. Local guy had a blown 392 front engine dragster and was something of a hero to us all. His name was Chuck Demaree but it's been so long I'm not sure about the spelling of his last name anymore.

He brought the dragster to the show. One thing led to another and pretty soon Chuck had the dragster sitting in the center of the street. People everywhere. He fires up the dragster and makes a smokey burnout pass right down the center. The crowd loved it; campus police not so much.


Lead, follow or get the hell out of the way
