The 43rd Annual Project Filter Oldies But Goodies Drags returns Sat-Sun., June 10-11. A combination of nostalgia race `n show classes will be offered, along with the Boise Muffler Gold Cup Series at this two-day event.
All of the core Gold Cup eliminators will be contested on both Saturday and Sunday with a complete race run each day.
Additionally, racing will be staged in a variety of nostalgia race categories (1989 or older).
Another big hit of the weekend is the annual show `n shine that will take place in Firebird’s paved upper pit area. Similar to the Oldies specific race categories, the show is open to 1989 or older entries. Both Saturday and Sunday will offer a multitude of special show plaques on both Sat. and Sun.
The AA/Supercharged coupes and sedans will headline the event, which will be led by the many time Oldies champion Scott White with his 210 mph `41 Willys coupe.
A forty-three year tradition at Firebird, the Oldies is annually supported by a number of host clubs the Melba Outlaws, Vintage Gems, Heap Herders, The Barons and Idaho Chariots.
