With all the introductions given on the parade page, here is Cacklefest proper with out having to read anything! Just enjoy the photos and imagine the feelings. The static start cars fired first followed by the push starts. When the order was given, all the cars started at once (or at lease were suppose to).

No where substantiates the "Months to the flame" theory more than the push start part of the Cacklefest program. The more header flames, the more photos. Its not planned that way, ideally all cars would get equal coverage but they don't. It's hectic out there shooting these cars and like months, photogs are drawn to the flame. It is what it is.

In closing I offer a reminder of why we have these events and why we call them "reunions". This is a representive list of folks our drag racing family has lost since the California Hot Rod Reunion last October. They have seen their last reunion, the best reason for us to make every one we can.
