"Our Mission for 2008"

With the New Year comes new challenges and new goals for us at Nitrogeezers.Com and hopefully the fulfillment of our next and most challenging project to date, the formation of the Drag Racing Heritage Foundation, which will insure the longevity of all the history we collect and preserve.

You can be an important part of this website by sharing your history, memories, or photos with us. We want to preserve all this for the generations to come so they will know the people, places and things that gave birth to Drag Racing. If you were a part of drag racing anywhere in the country or have a family member that was, we want to hear all about it. If you were a photographer, either amateur or pro back in the day and would like to see your work displayed for all the world to see, just send me an e-mail at 1320history@charter.net or call me at 423-586-2499. No matter how large or small your collection of photos and memories are, they are important to the overall history and we want them. Please share your memories and photos, and films before it is too late

EDITORS NOTE

Lets Bring Back The "REAL" Gassers

Do you love the "Gassers" from back in the 60's ? I sure do and would love to see some promoters put period correct Gasser Classes back in the nostalgia shows. A friend and I drew up some rules to use if we can ever put this together so TAKE A LOOK and let us know what you think, then let the tracks know what you want to see.
