Too hot in Phoenix right now to go to track, but very soon it will be great.

I raced a gentleman named "black magic" once at an earlier Z06 Fest. Does anyone have a video of that race? I gave the time slip to him at the banquet.Took pictures later, at the Hampton,but never really saw what happened to him.

How long ago did you race him?? The only one I know of with that name is Calvin Baltmore from Maryland.. Very high $$ car...

Sorry can't help on the vid... but maybe with that info someone might locate one.

Black Magic (George) is a long time member of this site. He doesn't post here very often any more. I don't know of any vid of the race you speak of but I do know that George has taken his Vette down the strip a couple of times during the fests.

Nope, can't say I drag my car, it is a fine automobile product and has an engine that pushes just fine.

I do go on frequent raqce days at tracks with bends in them though!

I wonder why drag racing has not really caught on over here?
