Big Daddy Don Garlits will appear at the traditional event ...
Henderson, North Carolina will once again open its streets for classic hot rods, muscle cars, nostalgia drag machines, and restored
antiques, during the weekend of October 17 - 19, 2008. The seventh
annual East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame gathering is hosted by the
Vance Country Tourism Board and under the guidance of Director/Promoter
Nancy Wilson.
The event has grown in size and stature to become one of the east
coast’s premier attractions for the performance enthusiast. It’s a
three day gathering that will draw an estimated 1,700 entries, some for
Show & Shine and others from drag racing’s golden years.
East Coast Drag Times Hall of Fame gathering turns the main avenue and
surrounding side streets of downtown Henderson into a giant pedestrian
mall as one vehicle after another stands proud for all to see.
