It was stinkin' hot at the first nostalgia drags - they said 38 degrees on the radio, so you can imagine how hot it was down on the drag strip.
It was then I jumped in the old '64 Bonneville Brougham, hit the buttons on the power window to wind them up, started the engine and turned on the air conditioning and sat there between races - left it running most of the day. Oh........sorry, most of your cars would overheat if you did that, oh well.

I Luv the Nostagia drags (except last year cause I broke my leg there!) Hopefully IF and WHEN I get my car back, it will suppose to be running cool and I can give it a go and whip the ponys red ass! So hopefully heat wont effect it BUT I hate hot days like that unless of course I'm at the beach!

Been there, done that. I raced at the first nostalgia drags with my '64 Bonneville. Beaten in the second round.
Also raced the ragtop at the Riverina Drag Racing Club's strip at Narraderra.

Forgot to mention, 1st place in the sprints at the 2001 Pontiac Nationals, ran 1/10th slower than my dial in, in my '66 GTO . Also, used to be a semi-regular at the old Eastern Creek on a Wednesday night in the same car. I stopped going, as by the time you bought fuel, paid your entry and bought food, your 3, maybe 4 runs cost about $100 for the evening.
