Well WC, your story about piloting Norb's Nostalgia Rail to the winners circle for a cackle, reminded me, "I have a clip of that".
But, when I pulled up the footage, I was shocked. The video started out with Norb givin' the DragListerz' our very own cackle fest earlier in the day. Then it switched to us pullin' Driver WC and co-pilot Billy Mac to the winner circle. Nothin' odd about that. I'm sure this piece of drag racin' history has been pulled or pushed to the staging lanes more times I than I could imagine.
However, if you watch closely, as soon as this machine touches the asphalt, something magical begins to happen. I think Bill (Who was drivin' the tow vehicle) must have noticed somethin' happen just then, cuz' I heard him say opp, just as the magic began. Then as if the track knew this ol' ground pounder was makin' a return to the staging lanes, There were a couple flashes of light and then a fog began to roll in.
When we pulled through the stagin' lanes & turned to faced the tower, it was as if we slipped back in time. The closer we got to the startin' line the further back in time we went. Then my camera went black. The only thing that makes sense is my digital camera couldn't record that far back in time. Hopefully somebody got some 8mm footage of the cackle fest.
Give it a little time to load, as it took allot a memory to capture this phenomenon
