    in my younger days we used to make the drive down there every year, always a good time. somewhere I have a picture of me with a Hurst girl on both sides, the camera would need a wide angle lens for that now.

    Well that was different and interesting. I'm afraid your tractor might not stand up to that much horse power, lol. It would look good. I am grateful that you took us along because I don't do very well in the sun and heat. This way I sat in my air conditioning. See you soon.

    Man, the field trips are cooler in Indiana. Kids around here go to the apple orchard and if the bus driver is lucky, the bad ones never come out of the corn maze.

      🤣 we saw how those southern Michigan boys were turning out going to the apple orchard so we decided we better not let that happen to our kids.

    Good video Ross. How about a few of those engines in one of the Olivers. A lot of horsepower and a lot of money. Loved the old hotrods. Thanks for sharing.

    I think I could spend all day in the merch/concessions area but $21 for a samich, fries and a drink, wow! I was surprised the stands had very few people in it but not surprised the Walmart Health and Wellness area looked totally abandoned.

      Much more in Pomona….a BBQ sandwich without fries & drink is $17….if you add a drink & fries in Pomona then your talking $28 to $30.

    We went to the National Drags in Madison, IL (St. Louis) when it was still held in the heat of summer. This was in the days of halter tops that they wore commando. We sat on the 60' line, on the top row with the big signs at our back so we stayed relatively cool in the afternoon shade. In the row in front of us and one seat to the left of me was a gal that nature or a plastic surgeon had blessed. When the nitro-burning cars launched, the pressure wave would hit you in the chest rather hard. It would hit that gal, press those melons almost flat, and many times she had to stuff the buttons back into the halter top. Made for an interesting side view.
    Here is an interesting fact. A Top-Fuel dragster only turns 500 revolutions in a run and the 2 spark plugs in a single cylinder only fire 250 times and are usually melted. Counting the burnout, a Top-Fuel car will not turn over 1200 revolutions before it has to be rebuilt.
    A modern farm tractor turning 1700 rpm X 60 minutes will turn 102,000 revolutions. Multiply that times 4,000 hours will make 408,000,000 revolutions. That is 204,000,000 injections and the maximum force on bearings and crankshaft.
    Several years ago the cost of a run was $10,000. Today it has to be more as parts keep getting more expensive. The fuel cars have to replace the center section and rear axles every 3 runs. Just the cost of the timer box that controls the spark advance, clutch application would build us a very nice and big shop.
