Lucky for us here in the Denver area, we have a mountain dragstrip right near by!

Bandimere Speedway is located on the other side of Dakota Ridge from Red Rocks Ampitheater, just outside the town of Morrison.

The track is 50 years old this year. They keep threatening to relocate it, but I am glad it has managed to stay exactly where it is (10 minutes from my house!)

I popped over to Bandimere to catch the 50th anniversary Hot Rod Happening this last Sunday.

I was hoping to start posting pictures on Sunday night, but I took a lot more photos than I thought, and it took me this long to wade through them all.

For this first page I am concentrating on the 50s & 60s cars, then I will move on to the 30s & 40s and some really wild rat rods!
