Nostalgia Drags and Rod Meet

1997

Darlington, South Carolina

May 17th and 18th in Darlington, SC was the first Nostalgia Drags and Rod Meet put on by the guys at Gibbons Fiberglass and Frank Spittle. The meet was held at the Darlington International Dragway Park and featured some great drags and a gathering of fine street rods.

This was a small show, as most premiere shows are, but the facilities were great and the potential for a great event is there. We thought the entry fees were a little steep for a first event, but these are decisions that are made by promoters and we can choose to accept or not. I think the higher prices hurt this show and attendance was light.

Having said that, the quality was top caliber in both the racers and the street rods.
