 We went to NHRA Museum in Pomona, Ca. for the preview of the 50th Anniversary of the March Meet exhibit. March Meet is one of the most famous annual drag meets in the nation. It runs at Famoso Raceway near Bakersfield, Ca., obviously in March. The strip was started by the Bakersfield Smokers and is now run by the Bowser family. Many notable racers were present for the preview including Tommy Ivo, Alex Xydias and others. Photos, memorabilia and race cars comprised the exhibit. Afterwards we toured the museum eyeballing more fabulous drag racing history. That afternoon in the parking lot the Twilight Cruise was being held and we had already secured a nice shady spot. Lots of cars, met some old and some new friends, ate at the snack stand and had a couple Buds, a great day indeed. Sam Flowers
