Rocky Reports: Legendary AA/GS Match Race!




Two of the biggest names in AA/GS racing will be having a special best out three match rcae at this years California Hot Rod Reunion. Bones Balogh who won at this very track 50 years ago will be wheeling the Big John Mazmanian 1941 Willys coupe against gasser legend Fred Bear who will be wheeling the K.S. Pittman 33 Willys coupe. Both of these cars represent some MAJOR history in the sport of drag racing. Bones Balogh drove the Big John car to the very first 9 second run in a door car with gas in the tank. A few years later K.S. was the first in 8 second with his chopped top 33! Not only do these cars represent some unreal history, but each driver holds some amazing history as well! Both drivers are Hall of fame drivers and both are past US Nationals winners. This match race will be a TRUE clash of the TITANS!
