The 2021 Eagle Field Drags

Photos+Words: J. G. Wirt

It was just as we'd left it, having skipped a year at Eagle Field.

But almost. They used a starting tree for the Saturday races, where before it was a flagman.

It was also a lot cooler than last time, and a little breezy. But all the home-built jobs and rare classics were in the pits and staging and lurching down the eighth-mile former airstrip on the west side of Fresno County.

The Fresno Dragways Reunion pays tribute to the small-town dragstrips and racers of decades past. We were last there for the Reunion in 2019. https://www.rustmag.com/new-blog/2018/5/30/fresno-dragways-reunion?
