Check out this last ride down the quarter mile with Charley Gall at Tristate Dragway in Hamilton,Ohio. Money has changed hands and the signs are down now. Defiantly have lot of great memories from there. Thanks for Video Charley.

This is where I met Ronnie Sox who was very nice and even let me sit in his car. At the time, he was biggest idol. he answered all my stupid questions and this is when I learned why the Sox & Martin team always had blue headlights.I also got to wave his car door on the starting line as it was very hot that day. As the National Anthem was ending he fired the car up and it was my best memory ever at a dragstrip. I have pics of this somewhere.
This was also the first track i ever tested at.

Sad all those who have raced there throughout the years... just the memories will remain.


If it ain't broke fix it anyway!

My Valiant raced at that track when Mike owned it. Tri-State was one of the places I missed on our Slant racing road show.
