AA/FD From the Pacific Northwest. Poulsbo, Wash. to be exact. I give you Herm "The Northwest Terror" Petersen
and his Heidelberg Beer sponsored AA/FD. Had a few Heidelberg beer's at High School kegger's in the mid 70s.
The beer, nothing to write home about.

more gas?

Ramsey celebrating after his win, 1971 NHRA Supernationals

Thanks for all of the wonderful old photos, Jim!
This one of Rick Ramsey and "Miss Tanya" Sharon Harvey was from the 1970 Supernationals.
The winner's circle ceremony was kinda funny. Guys were clamoring to get close to the winners. When we finally got close enough to see what all the commotion was about we finally got a glimpse of Miss Tanya (the old tanning lotion)---wowza, she was the hottest trophy queen we ever saw, at least at the SoCal events!

James, don't thank me, thank all the great photographer's from days gone by! I just saved 90% of my drag rags.
Plus, I know a couple of photographer's (from days gone by) who turned me on to some photo's. I'm still living
in the 60s and 70s. I miss those days.


James, thanks for looking, that means a lot from someone like you, that has been around the sport for years.
I don't get to many visitor's out here in the "North 40"


And for sure, Sharon is all girl. They don't make 'em like that anymore. No piercing or ink. I dig it.

Just one of James Ibusuki great masterpiece's
