Re: local drag stip pics ( george rays wildcat drag strip paragould arkansas)
I lived in Jonesboro for almost 2 years, and never made it there. After we had moved back here to TN, we went in to visit friends and stopped in to see George Ray. When I heard of his passing a few years ago, I was worried what would happen to the dragstrip. I called and spoke to his daughter one day, and she had full intentions of keeping it just the way it is and always has been.
Every time I see photos or hear stories about GR's, it makes me want to go. I'll make it one of these days. Come to think of it, I wasn't that far away during Power Tour, but it was on Tuesday, so may not have been anyone there.
