Default Castlereagh Drags Sydney!

Hello,
Anyone of the older members remember going to the drags at Castlereagh back in the 60's-70's?
Best Saturday arvo and night entertainment around at the time,Ford, Holden and Valiant...or Ford, Chevy and Mopar.

I remember seeing some crazy Yank called EJ Potter, he looked like a drowned rat with glasses,a real nerdy lookin dude,but when he got on his 350ci motor sickle and blasted off his looks were forgotten,what a big buzz we got,had never seen a V8 bike before,blew me away,and Bobby Dunn in his "Terrifying T",and Jock McCloud in his AA fueler funny car Cortina,he called it "Mayhem"..the good old days..

Cheers Billy.
