DRAGGIN' MAIN, 2015---"BUMPER TO BUMPER"



Those "DRAGGERS" participating in the big Second
Annual Draggin' Main Event, report that it was twice
as big as last year's, was often bumper-to-bumper,
and was ----SPLENDID!

We are also told by younger folks, who "stayed up
late," that it was not over until two a.m. or after---
there was some "burning rubber, drag-racing, and
a few were "feeling no pain," as the saying goes.

I suppose that one could say that it is somewhat
different from the forties, when one knew practically
every make and year of dragging car. Many kids 
were in the family sedan and there were a few cute 
little coupes and a hot rod or two.

Then, after a big ball game on Friday night, the traffic
did get bumper-to-bumper at times, as well as on
Sunday afternoons.

A most interesting thing seems to have taken hold
with the two "modern draggings..." one might call
it a "happy car/miscellaneous vehicle show..."

And as Seinfeld says: "There's nothing wrong with 
that!"

Two first-time observers were heard to say: "They
(the people dragging) seem to really enjoy this!"
And..."They brought everything (all manner of
moving machines) to drag Main, see each other,
and reminisce!"

Thanks to Bob Snipes for his help, and I will tell
you: "He is a good photographer."
