Crazy day yesterday at the Nostalgia Nationals. Lots of blown engines, chutes popping early, cars breaking. A lot of delays. A 1943 Willys crashed and rolled when the yoke that holds the rear axle in place broke. The car went sideways in the shutdown area and rolled 3 times. Driver walked away uninjured.
Some good stuff too. Lots of noise and speed. An A/A Nostalgia Funny Car called "Mad Max" made a 255mph 5.45 second pass. Slow by today's standards, but that's the fastest I've ever seen a nostalgia car go. The driver said it was their fastest pass. I was unfortunately on the other side of the track and paying attention the car nearer me, the Chi-Town Hustler, so my photos of Mad Max are limited. The Hustler crew did a great job too, their pass was 238mph and 5.75 seconds. It was a great matchup.
I made this for the Mad Max crew.

The Chi-Town Huslter. For those who aren't aware, 'Chi-Town' is slang for Chicago.

A few other shots from the day. As always, there's an album in Flickr, just click on any of the photos. I have about 60 in there now, probably another 60 to go.
