I happen to run across this forum while doing a search on the old Twin City Drag strip. Many moons ago I ran at Twin City and Tampa Drags. Man I have a ton of great memories from years ago.
So I'll say hello to all!

 

Hello to you also.

Later this year there will be a racers reunion. We might talk a bit.
Do you have any pictures from the good ol' days?
What did you run back in the day?

For now, I'm more or less the editor of Tampa racing....and a bit of racing historian.
Keeper of the flame so to speak.....
I'm glad the history is still up.

Here are a few more including Twin City:

On Tampa Racing, there are also a lot of interviews, articles and videos from back in the day.
There are a few car meets/shows later on and in 2017
at Don Garlits place in Ocala.

 

In the top right of the screen there is a window called "regular forum search"
that will be helpful.

 

[h=2]Formed years ago, Tampa Racing.com was founded on the principles[/h] From Senor Honda:
Formed years ago, Tampa Racing.com was founded on the principles of encouraging restoration, repair or modification of special interest vehicles. Over 102,000 members strong, Tampa Racing has no national affiliation, but you will likely find its members among any number of automotive organizations including the National Street Rod Association, Mustang Club of America, Goodguys, Florida Mopar Association, Corvette Club of America, to name a few. The type of vehicles found amongst the members varies from restored early 1900's vintage automobiles, to street rods from the 30’s and 40’s, to muscle cars from the 60’s and 70’s, to present day front-wheel-drive imports and motorcycles. With the wide range of vehicles come varying degrees of modifications from bone stock to big block Pro Street monsters. There truly is something to satisfy every automotive taste.

As with the vehicles there are varying activities that the members undertake ranging from weekly cruise nights and car meets, to cruises through the countryside, cookout get-togethers, Christmas parties, open track days, organized races, beach concerts and frequent car shows. The shows are perhaps the most popular venue for many of the members who engage in showing their cars at almost every opportunity. Tampa Racing also co-sponsors and/or supports select charity car shows, community events. This is a way of giving back to the local communities.

So joining Tampa Racing you will always be a member of the family whether at a cruise night, car meet or on the highway. And remember life is good friends, a clean ride, and the open road in front of you.

 

You just missed it, but......
