Continuing our Photo posts, here’s the last of the 3 photos from an early US Open at Rockingham Dragway. Look at those cool cars and trucks! The tower didn’t even have paint yet!!

Today, I was looking for an oil filter remote mount for a customer and noticed this white box on the shelf. It has Mike Heintz’s handwriting on it.
Read it if you can(he had “unique” handwriting), otherwise I’ll interpret: “GM oil filter Adapter with magnets in it to catch steel and iron particles in oil. Aluminum magnets are still in R&D”.
😆 Now who/what would’ve made Mike have to say that last part, tongue-in-cheek, that Aluminum magnets are in the research & development phase?
This caught me off guard and made me laugh out loud. If you knew Mike then you would understand!
Happy Friday y’all!

Here’s another one from the cleanup find!
Looks like this was from the same time as last week’s post at Rockingham Dragway US Open. When was the last time you saw the pits full of Lift-off bodied Drag cars?

PHOTO FROM THE ALBUM
While cleaning up in the shop we found a slew of old racing photos. I believe this one is from the early 60s U.S. Open race at Rockingham Dragway!
Packed stands to see those front engine dragsters heating up the tires! 🛞 💨

PHOTO FROM THE ALBUM
This is a photo for the history books! The beginnings of a Drag racing career. The Heintz Bros Camaro during the build stage with the engine block on a stand beside it looks like a photo taken from a 70s issue of Hot Rod Magazine.
