That Barracuda they show in the beginning is a members car I think? I can't remember the screen name but I think his son raced it.

I caught a show on TV that they did on this track. Looks like a crazy place to race. I thought I read that he passed away a few years ago but it looks like they kept the track open. http://georgerays.com/about-us/

Looks like some crazy fast cars making hits at that place. It reminds me of Ne-Be drag strip that I raced at 39 years ago. Lots of memories from that place in my Duster.

i lived at that place ! it was the first place i thought of when i first heard of "georgerays" my old man worked with "flakey"bob fiscus[one of the owners], and when he passed, his wife gave me a bunch of leftovers from the day it opened including newspaper reports and the "official" rule[? ha ! ha !] book. she also gave me permission to reprint the "class win" stickers ! nu-be closed in september of 83 with the crashing of the "dancing bear" 440sixpac colt. man, how time flys.......... [but i sure had fun there ! ] ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beer.gif)

NO KIDDING!! No way would I race there...shorts, tee shirt, no helmet...I'm surprised he didn't have on flip-flops.
