It'd be nice to know the whereabouts of some, maybe inspire them to stop-in occasionally. I'll be adding some as time comes but, feel free to add to the list (with pics!) Or even give an update to answer...where are they now?

I loved Bubba's 65 back when it was a street car, and have more memories of it that way. Rich H. Esse Quam Videri

The 'first' IDK but around the same era Gup touched the 7's, BigTime was in the 7's and Gary Robbins was there for 'head-up' cars. But I'm sure I'm missing some.

He used to be all over YellowBullet, then disappeared. I blocked that jerk on Facebook. He’s as Liberal as always. Remember when he took up a collection to make drag week then had mouthed everyone on here. 1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.42@138.27 Livin and lovin life one day at a time
