March 1st - 4th 2012, after reading about this place and race since I was a kid I am going this year for the first time to the March Meet! This is the largest nostalgia drag racing event in the world and heck of a car show and I can't wait!

If you are around a computer during the weekend of the race, check in at www.BangShift.com for LIVE video from the race from our former club member Chad Reynolds who is a partner on BangShift. This is as good as it gets if you love nostalgia drag racing!

It's a year later and this event only gets better with age, the 2013 55th running of the MARCH MEET will be streamed online running Thursday to Sunday (March 7-10) at BangShift.com link here http://bangshift.com/blog/march-meet-2013-bangshift-will-be-live-broadcasting-thursday-through-sunday.html, if you enjoy nostalgia drag racing this is the Super Bowl event for that kind of racing and having been fortunate to have attended last year I can veryify it is all and more than it's built up about. Former DACC member Chad Reynolds will again head up the broadcast so be sure to check in often and catch the action online.

check out the promo video http://youtu.be/JtD_25eIWco
