Only went on the Fri & Sat. Unfortunately we didn't make it there on either day before 10am so we missed the Sportsman classes. I get the impression that the NHRA see Sportsman as an inconvenience at Natioanal events as they didn't get any track time between 11 - 5 (except on finals day).
Still, Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Stock (cars & bikes) and Pro Mod held our interest. Warmish & sunny both days, tho for some reason the fuelers couldn't get a decent run on the friday, i think the bump by late afternoon was in the 6's. Probably as it's new tarmac.
Got a result going in on the Friday, someone flogged us 4 spare tickets at $15 each ($33 face value), and we got 'Military discount' (they love that over there) for Saturday so $61 instead of $75.
Hope these go down better than the bike photos...

Spotted this 67 GTO at National Parts Depot in Ocala on the way.

Gainesville has changed a bit since we went in '85.

And our runabout - Dodge Grand Caravan. Ideal for 4 blokes with loads of crap.

65 Cornet with the 426........Looks to clean to drive!

Also like the shot of what looks like a GRP BelAir body dragster. Interesting to see the lifters with the covers off....

The blown and injected Cornet does it for me Dave and I like the paint too, looks bang on!

I have to say the blue GTO is a belter though.

Look closer, I think those are Weber Carbs on that blower.

Shame that Funny cars, pro stocks and pro mods all look pretty much the same on the track these days.
