The Boat Drags
The "boat-drags" were always part of my life (and the "Lobster's") having lived only a few blocks from the famed "Marine Stadium." The "Lobster" and I never once paid to gain entrance in the 25-years or so years that we attended the boat drags, with the final Coors' Nationials being staged in August of '76. Between Lake Ming (Bakersfield, CA) and the Marine Stadium we saw history being made in the sport of boat racing on the "Liquid Quarter-Mile!"
