    Yes. I’m not holding the brake this time. Feels like the car launches better. When I just punch it

    Cool how this all happened. Famous old Vintage place to Drag Race. They Rebuild the whole road. Fellow car collector/ Body shop owner . Goes out and Buys a Hemi.
    Right after I tell him about the New road . Now we are headed down in the near future. For some video’s It’s like a Dream come true. And to think when I was 12 urs old. I was sitting there watching cars launch.

    Found my GoPro’s. Been missing for 2 years. I have a control button for the steering wheel. mounting seems quite easy. Anyone have any ideas on where I should mount camera. And how too. The best way? Not really sold on the suction cup. I’m thinking aiming the camera on my car, To the car i will be Drag racing and vice verca.

    I hope. Frank. That is my intention . Frank Thornburgh bridge is in Crafton Ingram.
    Rt. 60 Starts there. Frank the history there is Deep. But now that is all rebuilt and new.Well. There is a reason Dragstrips arnt built anymore. Very very exspensive . I know for a fact this Half mile . Was a half a million dollars to build. It is Beautful.
    Frank Google earth Find the Bridge . It is To the Right 1000 feet. Can’t miss it. like i said we need to have a Buick meet there every month. But all makes welcome. It’s a special place. Has been done before.
