First Drag strip visit

First time at a drag strip was the 1968 Winternationals at Pomona. My (then) girlfriend and I stood as close as we could get to the track all day long.
First time racing at a drag strip would be early 1970 at Orange County International Raceway with my '69 Swinger 340. Girlfriend mentioned earlier was now my wife.
Great memories of OCIR!
I've been hooked from the very first.
