That’s awesome!!! Great pics!!! My father always had a slight obsession with Big Daddy lol Did you race?! That’s not at Raceway Park, is it??
Those pictures are from Rt 66 Raceway, Joliet, IL. NHRA ran there but not in 2020 or 2021. Won't either this year, maybe 2023. I have been to the Nationals at Raceway probably 12-15 years, not for past maybe 10 years though. I was there for the first Indy Nationals, 1962 I think. I did race, just street cars at the strip, nothing big, local tracks back in the 60's. Mostly just timing. I did do plenty street racing in the 60's though. Nuts!!! Can't imagine that today! So glad I got to meet Garlits and Muldowney.

My grandson did not fully comprehend the moments.
