Ok all you Old Timers that have been Drag Racing since you were old enough to drive.  Here is your chance to strut your stuff, show some photos and have a good time talking about and telling stories.  You can either send me some scanned photos with information or you can link the image yourself from a photo sharing site.  But please, no photos over 800 pixels wide.  If you need help with this, you can E-Mail me at photos@houstonraceway.com.  I will start with the first photo that has been sent in!  Can you guess who they are??

Don't worry about sizing anything! Just send me the scan and i will fix it in Photo Shop. I actually took the scans that were sent to me yesterday and resurrected some of the color tone, contrast and brightness.  So just send me what you got.  If I start getting too many, I will have to make a Gallery on my photo site and link everything.  The forum can only take a certain amount of photos before it starts to delete them.  I will put the Gallery on the Home Page (Front). I will work on that this weekend.  That way all the photos will be easy access for everyone.  I know that Glen Stepan has quite a few old photos.  I even have some myself from 1989 and 1990.  I only started Drag Racing in 1988.
