The Good Old Days of Racing Return to Mission!
Vancouver, B.C., July 23, 2007 - There are few sports that make remembering the “old days” as easy to do as drag racing, with its rich tradition and reverence for old cars, and this weekend is the chance for fans to relive the glory days when the Langley Loafers present the 16th Annual Re/Max B.C. Oldtime Drags at Mission Raceway Park. This is the only event at Mission this season for cars of pre-1971 design only, although for reasons of safety and reliability, they have all been brought up to current equipment standards. Highlighting the Re/Max B.C. Oldtime Drags is the return appearance of the famous AA/Supercharged Gassers Association. These ‘30’s and ‘40’s era cars such as Willys and Austin feature huge supercharged engines which, when combined with the short and tall designs of them, result in crowd-pleasing displays as their drivers wrestle them to the end of the quarter mile at speeds approaching 200 mph. About a dozen of these cool old cars will be launching down the strip at Mission this weekend, along with hundreds of other hot rods, dragsters, and muscle cars racing in several different classes. A special match race will see the two fastest '55 Chevies in B.C. square off, with Jeff Hill's 706-cubic inch nitrous-powered car taking on the supercharged version of friend and rival Duane Grosart. There will be plenty to see and do off the track, too, at the Re/Max B.C. Oldtime Drags, as one of the area’s largest Show and Shines will fill the Mission pits to overflowing with customs, street rods and muscle cars all weekend long. With the sunny weather forecast, there could be no better way for an old car enthusiast to spend a beautiful summer weekend. It’ll be an action-packed two days, with something for every fan of old race cars. Gates open Saturday and Sunday at 8:00 am. Qualifying for the Gassers goes at noon, 2:00 and 4:00 pm Saturday, and their first round of eliminations begins Sunday at noon followed by all the other classes of racing.
