Re: Dallas Pics!

Thanks for all the work, Joe! It was nice for those of us that were unable to attend to get a little glimpse of the event. And the captions had me in stitches! Thanks again

I think this is a '55: - Kingnitro : photos : NHRA Dallas '07 : Nice looking '57 chev! - powered by SmugMug
and yes, the '57 - Kingnitro : photos : NHRA Dallas '07 : Another Nice '57 Wagon - powered by SmugMug

Check out the differences in the side panels (trim). Unless he just has '55 trim on the '57 in the first one and I don't know the Tri-5's as well as you (quite possible).

DLB
Both 57s, just the car is/was the plain Jane 210. As for Mike's Wagon (which he's had forever) was a more expensive body style.

Re: Dallas Pics!

Always enjoy the pics Joe. My wife always points out the "eye candy" to me. Here are a few you missed or couldnt get shots of over the weekend curesty of my buddy Jack on his website:

B r a c k e T r a s h -- DEDICATED TO THE BRACKET SCENE IN TEXAS!

Just click on the top right "07 Fall Nats" link once the page loads. Its just a local bracket racing website but Jack's son Jay is one of the best racers around and they were there running stock.

Nope. That was a 150. The 210 (My dad owned a '57 210 station wagon.) has what most people consider the normal side spear, but without the ribbed fill panel that the Bel Air had.

Great pictures, as always Joe. I always look forward to seeing them.

Thanks for posting them.

Robert's correct. It's a 57. Had a few of them myself. The first was a 150 which was the lightweight stripped down model. Made great racecars.

Great stuff, as always Joe. Thanks

Re: Dallas Pics!

Nice pics Joe, as always, great job...the little girl in #24 is my Niece Brianna, My sister in law took her to the sprinklers to cool off, when they got back she said a guy took my picture, he was big with lots of hair and a BIG bud light in his hand.....I knew right away who she was talking about.

Re: Dallas Pics!

Great set of pics there Joe! You did a good job of capturing the "spirit" of the event with all of the different shots taken in different places. And, to top it off, you used my favorite camera, a Nikon D200! What lenses do you use?

JC, I mostly use the Sigma 18-200f3.5 cause I get lazy dragging other lenses around. But I also have a 28-300f3.8 Tokina that does pretty good. I have a Sigma 50-500m that does Great for Close-ups, but it weighs a Ton and is a ***** carrying.
