SALUTE TO FORD AT YORK REUNION

York, PA - February 1, 2009

It has been thirty years this year that York US 30 Dragway
ceased operations at the York Airport, Thomasville, PA but
the tradition runs deep for the 8th Annual Musclecar Madness at the York Reunion that takes place on July 10-
11, 2009 at the York Expo Center, York Fairgrounds.

The founder and publisher of Super Stock and Drag Illustrated magazine and co-owner of York US 30 Dragway,
Monk Reynolds will make his first appearance at the
annual reunion.

The York drag strip was one of the most prominent drag
racing facilities in the United States and was the host of
the largest one day drag race in the history of the sport,
the Super Stock Nationals in 1965. The race to this day
is known as the "Woodstock of Drag Racing". No drag race
ever presented can lay claim to the title.

The memories are relived every year the second full weekend
in July with the presentation of the annual Musclecar Madness at the York Reunion. The 8th Annual will be no
exception and is brought to you by York Traditions Bank,
and GGS Technical Publications Services.

GMMG, Inc. of Marietta, Georgia and the "Detroit Rat
Pack" has joined the event as a Golden Heritage Sponsor
enabling the popular show to continue in '09.

The event will present a Salute to Ford which will be attended
by some of the greatest legends and legendary race cars to
ever carry the blue oval.

In attendance will be Bob Tasca, Sr., Sam Auxier, Jr., Dick
Estevez, Hubert Platt, Earl Wade, Al Joniec, Phil Bonner,
Tommy Grove, 422 Motorsports, Bob Glidden's Pro Stock
Fairmont, Rick Auxier Boss 429,Phil Bonner's Falcon, plus
a host of others.

The event will be attended by a star studded field including
Gordy Foust, Wally Booth, Judy Lilly, "Miss Hurst Golden
Shifter" Linda Vaughn, "Ohio George" Montgomery, Bob
Chipper, Wally Bell, Jere Stahl, Jerry Baltes, Jim & Alison
Lee, Larry Reyes, Bud Faubel, "The Voice of Drag Racing"
Jon Lundberg and a host of other legends to the sport.

The event annually supports the York County SPCA and
the goal is to exceed the '08 total proceeds of $5500.
A SPCA special memorabilia auction is held on Saturday.

The show features a giant outside display at the annual
Cruisin' Into Summer cruise in featuring over 600 street
musclecars and street rods.

The show opens on Friday, July 10 at 1 p.m. until 8 p.m.
and continues on Saturday, July 11 from 10 a.m. until 8
p.m.
