On April 26, 2009 at the Half Moon Bay Airport, the Pacific Coast Dream Machines show will take place. The airport, located about 20 miles of San Francisco, was once home to a legendary drag strip of the same name.
The dream machines show will feature everything from a zeppelin to classic hot rods, but for true drag history nuts, the Half Moon Bay Reunion makes this the place to be. Although there’s not a set list of invitees or guests, we can only imagine the historical firepower that will be there.
Here’s a portion of the press release for the event, but to see the whole thing and learn more about this event click here.
The Champion Speed Shop in association with Miramar Events is proud to announce a return to the Pebble Beach of Drag Racing. The Pacific Coast Dream Machines show will host the 50th Reunion of the Half Moon Bay Drag Strip on April 26th, 2009. Bob McLennan along with Andy “Rodfather” Brizio, son Roy Brizio, and the entire Champion Speed Shop team would like to extend a welcome to anyone who ever worked, raced, or simply enjoyed the spectacle of drag racing by-the-sea. The latest Champion Speed Shop top fuel streamliner will be on display, along with a replica of the Kent Fuller built dragster that belonged to Champion Speed Shop founder Jim McLennan. There will also be plenty of memorabilia and memories at the very place where a bread van loaded with speakers, timing equipment, fences, and a generator made its way down from Champion Speed Shop South San Francisco headquarters and transformed the Half Moon Bay Airport into a drag strip where records were broken.
