You hit it right on the head man.....we would work all week, get paid on friday,cash our check,load up the car,buy some beer&food,grab the gill and tool box and head to the track,race sat&sun,if somebody at the track needed a part or a hand everybody pitched in...from 1979 till it closed in late 80s(then reopened)I was at Byron Dragway,if not there then great Lakes Dragway,or US 30,it was a different era for sure.
