Ontario Nostalgia Drag Racers Reveal 2005 Schedule
Chris Hicks - March 23, 2005
The fledging new Ontario Nostalgia Drag Racers Association has firmed up it's inaugural racing schedule. The series will feature many fine vintage cars
owned by it's ever growing membership.
The Ontario Nostalgia Drag Racers (ONDR), is the fastest growing nostalgia club in Ontario, featuring some 90 members and 60+ race cars. New members, each with their own piece of drag racing history, join us every week as we prepare for our FIRST season of racing.
Our rules are simple. Your vehicle needs to have been manufactured prior to 1972 and able to pass the technical safety Inspection at any IHRA or NHRA track.
The goal of ONDR is to bring nostalgia style cars out of storage and back to the tracks and to the fans who remember these cars. We have dragsters, altereds, and Super Stocks. You can see them all at any of the events we attend.
Does the sight of "those high flying wheel standing straight axle" cars from the 30's, 40's and 50's, excite you?
ONDR is pleased to announce that a large number of these old "Gassers" have joined with us to create a "straight axle class" that is sure to capture your attention and have the crowd on their feet . We are the "Fast Blast to the Past".
