I know Bob Garner will bring either his blown gas flat, or his blown gas hydro. I know, I know, Lions was a CAR dragstrip, but if you were there, you'd know that a good percentage of the car and boat people were cut from the same cloth. Many of the faces at Lions on Saturday night would be at Long beach Marine Stadium for Sunday's racing. Mickey Thompson, who ran Lions, was also an avid fan of drag boats. I should be different. I will post a number to call for more info tomorrow.
Are you talking about the AUTOMOBILIA show at PRICE TRANSFER on sunday if so that's where I'll be. There is a bunch of nostalgia top fuel rails among the show along with the WINGED EXPRESS fuel altered.
