My Dad, Tennesee, or James Fentress was a drag racer from the 60's. I remember well the Bullitt County Dragstrip. I remember the opening of Ohio Valley, remember being there every Saturday night for years. Among some of the top racers there at the time,Fentress and Miesner in the Louisville Belle, Lyde Wagers, Jesse Campbell, Clyde Williams, Wendell Hawkins, Irvin Johns and many others. Also remember Bluegrass Dragstrip, Beech Bend, Us 60 Dragway. What a great bunch of history with these guys and Strips! Thanks for this website honoring these men and the passion of this sport!
