Watching the old iron is much better than watching the new stuff!

It’s been almost 45 years since I’ve been to this Great Little drag strip in Wisconsin and it looks pretty much the same I live about 25 miles straight east of Byron Drag Strip in Illinois. Another little strip out in the country. I’m glad to see both of these strips alive and well. It’s the love of men and women t egg gong to make their machines go as ____ing Fast Aa Possible. Ya Gotta Love It.

Brought back a lot of good memories.👍👍🇨🇦

" Sunday Sunday Drag Racing Union Grove Wisconsin!!" That's where I grew up.

Old school !!!! Awesome..not the boring nhra

i was there in the summer of 1970 in the navy at the time, compliments of special services, very good memories.

For 10 years I could hear the loud cars and jet cars from my house a few miles away. I have many great memories of that place!

Thanks,,,One of the greatest Fire shows by a jet car.....Unlike the B/S at nhra meets on late saturdays , with lame announcers screaming over the sounds of the cars,,,,,savy................

The guy in the slingshot! That's cool bruh

Loved all the old machines especially the Willy’s Pickup.

This was spectacular funz, thanks you.

I remember Broadway Bob. Buddy had a gold pass late 70s/early 80s. Haven't been there in decades. BTW, pretty stiff headwind.

My dad took me to this track on the 4th of July when I was in fourth grade. The following year we saw Art Arfons with LSR Green Monster. It is amazing to see this track still active.

OLD SCHOOL 🤠👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

YES 1/4 MILE RACING LOVE IT.

GLD in the 70s was AWESOME. Broadway Bob 🤘

Union Grove is just 15 minutes from me. Been the GLD many many times.

GLD and Oswego were our (2) favorite strips to run at in the late 60's. "Power shift - here we go!"

Grew up outside franksville and spent alot of weekends through the 90s down there, great fun and memories.

Awesome!!

👍🇺🇸

Will you start the tree before he burns down the tower!

Gate price keeps a lot of old guys on fixed income from coming back out there

SCHWEEEEET!

Remember seeing Art Arfons Jet dragster at local strip; fast, but not quick

0:09 just once i want to see a sign "for sale by neighbor."

If they don't burn the tower, it isn't like old times.

I was supposed to go this year

That fire breathing jet truck should not even be allowed at the drag strip it should be at the Salt Flats! Gasser drag racer! Fire and explosion waiting to happen

Man, this is freaky watching this because almost no doubt many of those cars are the same ones that were racing back in the 60's when I was a kid and used to look at pictures of them in drag racing magazines. Being at this race or watching the video would be exactly how it all looked back in the 60's. From what I can tell, even the spectators are all white people just like they would have been back in the day - the only thing missing might be horn-rimmed sunglasses on the women and the addition of white-trash tattoos on some of the people, but the cars and the whole vibe would be exactly the same for sure. It reminds me of that Kevin Costner movie Field of Dreams. How totally bizarre but very cool.

That jet car is slow I've seen dragster jets running 300

From Canada, but already going there.... in 1999, 2000

Seems a long way from the track

Gasser Meet ??????????????????? what date ????????????? ok sept.. good

Looks like I’ll need a pair of binoculars to see from wherever those camera angle is so I can see if maybe there is actually some cars being driven somewhere

The return lane at GLD was what made it all so TITZ!!!

Shame about recording it with a shitty "narccistick" ...from the next state LOL
