Subject: Re: famoso has a new surface. by istter1 on 2011/7/20 16:14:13 Your right about Famosa it has had a drop in appeal over the years.Shirley Muldowney was the grand marshal at last years March meets. The track condition caused a lot of down fall for the sport. It was dangerous and no one wanted to up grade it for years. In the old days we had the big names racing there, Connie and Scot Kalitta, Big daddy Don the Snake Paroadone, Don Garlits, and a lot of others. I was into bracket racing. It does sit in the middle of nowhere you park in a field and the stands and racing grounds havent changed since I was a kid in the 70's. The closest motel is a long way off. That is what I liked about Lone Pine, small comunity, everybody knows everyone else, most people hate LA because of the Dry lake, and the other joke the pure bottled water from Mt Whitney. I know where the golf course is and have viewed the Whitney Portal. Don't know whey my sons friend will get back from Alaska , but when she does we will be heading up there. |
