Prior Dragweek Hot Rod photos
« on: November 18, 2017, 11:53:18 PM »
Hot Rod posted a story with photos from past Dragweeks ( not this year ), mostly on the road & in the pits shots. Looks by the byline it's an older story, but I don't remember it. Couple pictures of Jay, maybe Jay remembers what was going on.

That looks like the gas station where the Drunk Monkey heisted the paper towels out of the men's room... ;D

This looks like Thursday after leaving Cordova.With three roadside repairs...an injector,water pump in the rain and a fuel pump in blazing sun,we used up a lot of towels.I had asked if they had paper towels,but the response was less than understandable.The dispenser box was open on the island,so away went the needed aforementioned.

Allegedly. Allegedly heisted. There's no admission of guilt there ;D
