They have a really nice car show, and if you can make it, Saturday is
best. You can watch the wild gassers for time trials, and the big
Saturday night event...Worth it just to see the Winged Express that
Wild Willie Borsch drove. Ohio George is always there, along w/alot of
the old gasser legends. We're lucky to have this in our area, and if
you remember anything about the old days in drag racing... Or you
burned up the quarter mile yourself, y'gotta come out!
