24 July 2015 Kent, WA – Bringing back and keeping the tradition of the oldies alive the 25th Annual Good Guys Northwest Nationals event mixes a massive car show at the Puyallup Fairgrounds and drag racing at Pacific Raceways.
With a gap in the engine starting time and the start of drag racing Jim Ronan had the chance to get some more seat time in his wheel stander. Getting a machine like this to do what you want it to do is a fine balance, most of which comes from the seat of your pants and that balance point of the truck in which you can see in Breann’s pictures. Little by little Jim is getting it down and down the track working towards the ticket to do it for real, “Keep It Up”.
After a few delay’s for brief sprinkles the show went on and the stands filled with plenty of oldies watcher’s reliving the days when this was the action on the drag strip.
This once a year event will bring so many different types of old race and show cars that for the most part sit protected and covered to protect their show condition. Great time watching all this action and look forward to next year’s event, till then keep this history alive.
