Any of you guys going to Kingdon Drag Strip show and race on Oct 7th.?
There will be a car show and racing down the strip w/ timers.
A quote from Drag New Magazine:
Kingdon track to hold reunion day. Kingdon Drag Strip, Lodi, Calif.
which shut down in 1978 and is now an airstrip, will hold a one day
reunion race on October 7. The Central Valley Cruisers members, along
with the current Kingdon Airpark staff will host "Return to Kingdon: A
Day at the Races". The event will be the first reunion held at the
facility since 1994-1995. The event is to include a car and motorcycle
show, grudge match races, a raffle and vendors. Proceeds from the event
are to benefit the Lodi Junior Flames Football program. The event
promoters hope to attract between 500 to 1,000 cars and drivers,
including some of the racers who used to run at the dragstrip in the
50's to the early 70s. The track was home to the 1967 Winternationals,
and was the dragstrip king of Northern California in its heyday. Don
Garlits set the track record in his 1964 Swamp Rat IV in winning the Top
Eliminator title at 201.34 mph.
