The Inaugural NCR Drag Race Day |
|
|
|
After the 1955 Chevey Bel Air was dyno'ed @ All Speed in Peachtree City, I email'ed several of the car enthusiast here at NCR. This created a great deal of heated discussions about horse power and performance around many of the Hot Rods & Street Rods driven by many of my co-workers. So with all that bragging going around, Greg and I felt it was time to start planning a "reality check", a "lie detector", a "truth serum", a "fact-or-fiction" event at a near by drag strip. At our location, two are near by, Commerce and Reynolds. Both are quarter mile tracks, open to the public on specific days. We selected Silver Dollar Raceway in Reynolds for the event. This track is about 96 miles from the NCR facility and we met for lunch and drove through the country side to Reynolds. The event was for NCR employees, family, and friends. Many of those who came didn't bring anything to race but had a great time just watching. Those over 16 who want to ride down the track as a passenger could if the car stayed under 14 seconds. In all we had over 40 people at the event with 10 cars that raced. What a GREAT day, enjoy some highlight pics of our adventure ..... |
