Here are just a few pages on what went on during those eight hours of May 13, 2006.
For information on the '07 show, which will again be on the Saturday before Mother's Day, e-mail Ronomopars@bellsouth.net. for those of you traveling, the Smith Stokes dealership in Reidsville, North Carolina, (about 45 minutes east of the track) hosts a nice Mopar car show at their facility the Friday evening before the event, so you can do that, stay at a nearby hotel, and then roll into the show bright and early the next morning.
When the judging was over, the tally made Phil Harris the winner of the 2006 Best of Show award. | 
Phil and his son, Stanton, are shown here with the trophy, the winning car, club representative Ron Osborne, and sponsor Smith Stokes. Hodge Restorations did the restoration. | 
Don Dodson bought this '67 charges brand-new. His wife convinced him to restore it after it had sat for almost two decades outside. The car was well done and boasts its orginal 383 Magnum. |
Since the show is in the heartland of Sox & Martin country, several drag cars had been painted in red, white, and blue as tributes to the past. This one is owned by local racer Lane Burrow. | 
A row of pre-'63 cars was highlighted by this '61 Desoto brought by Ron Osborne. How rare is it? The RCA record player-equipped, two-door hardtop was a '61 model, and since Desoto production ended on November 30, 1960, only 911 (that's right) two-doors were built of the '61 model before the run ended. | 
The race action was hot and heavy, and the crowd definitely got a kick out of this cloned Max Wedge convertible that was stopping the eighth-mile timers in less than seven seconds. |
Dean Sox was on hand putting laps on his recently finished Duster. Many well-wishers came up to talk, and there were stickers and window signs everywhere saying, In Memory of Ronnie Sox, who had passed away less than a month earlier. | 
If you had $10,000 (or a close offer), there was this great '67 Coronet station wagon packing a 440 mill... | 
...a rebuilt 727, and a highway friendly 2.94 rear gear sitting in the swap meet. |
