Just some misc stuff, I thought was kind of cool...for your viewing pleasure.

I took tons of pics but these are a couple highlights, I'd be here all day if I tried to post them all.

Lots of character and history, worn proudly. I swear I've seen this run before in the early '90s but can't remember where.

He had it hooked up to the breather tank.

I didn't have the time to ask the guy, but I had a hunch the idea might have been to suck moisture out of the crankcase.

The 10.08 dial on the cordoba is pretty impressive.

Nice pics!

It always amazes me as to how many enclosed trailers I see at events in the US. Not nearly as common down here.

I've never been to Milan, didn't even know where it was so I looked it up. Found a great place for a drag racer 7 miles from the track: https://www.realtor.com/realestatea...r-Rd_Milan_MI_48160_M36205-18760?view=qv

It's very rare to see an open trailer anymore. I'd bet We see less than a dozen on open trailers at a normal bracket race.

Great pictures Rich. Post the rest on Facebook. Much easier to do.

Already did that. Have an album with a half dozen videos too, etc

Might want to check to see if you unfollowed me wink

(Wouldn't blame you if you did, who wants to see pictures of my guitars and food all the time? How annoying!)

I am to the point now, where I actually take pictures of entire rigs as well as the cars.
There are several more pics where I was thinking "That guy is KILLING IT with the whole rig" that were pretty inspiring at the time.

My "new" (to me) truck would have fit right in, and the possibility of towing is one of the reasons I always get at least a 3/4 ton.
(It's posted in the truck section, little bit of a project vehicle but not too bad, just a white heavy duty ram).

I might not have have the trailer yet but could quickly head down that road, and am always looking at them.
Given my experience borrowing Dean's rig, the first hurdle will be learning how to drive the darned thing....

I'm not totally opposed to an open trailer and my car will never be so precious it can't be rained on......
but enclosed gives a place in the shade to hang out/socialize and rest, especially with an awning or even
an EZ-Up tent next to it..........and if you bring a generator you can run fans and be more comfortable/battery chargers,etc...Creates a little nicer environment.
I've been fortunate to have folks like Dean and Mike/Mr. P invite me to use their rig and/or hang out and it is a nicer time for sure.

That's pretty nice!

I drive past alot of spreads like that in the general area up

My place is tiny compared to all that, but it's paid for.
