This weekend, my wife and I took in the Coronado Speedfest at Naval Air Station North Island. I could not help but be amazed at how far things had come since as a young sailor 43 years ago, I was able to close down the Memphis Naval Air Station for a weekend of auto-crossing. (Because it was at the height of the Cold War and in the middle of hurricane season, I had to get approval from the Secretaries of the Navy and Defense.) I have to admit I was a little disappointed at this weekends vintage races, for there were no Sprites on the track, and only two parked in the club parking venue. Still, the cars, the sounds and the olfactory senses brought back some sweet memories. Buster Evans Anaheim, California |
