know this strip

That picture is taken at the old San Antonio Drag Way before it was move to where it is today. The track end was at a Farm to Market road and there was about a 4 foot drop off at the end of the track, a barbed wire fence and a road. you had better be able to stop. Some did, some did not-been there, done that!

Paul is a friend--go to metalworks.com and look at some of the early Texas racers.
