Ummm I would say this would be 1988 or 1989. Yes I did have blue suede fringe chaps. Yes I did ride my horse with dock shoes. At least I'm riding english here & in my own saddle.
Auto Club Raceway at Pomona
Pomona Raceway
Nostalgia drag racing
The small three-story tower that stood for more than 25 years gave way to a 14,600-square-foot tower complete with corporate suites and a modern press center. In 1992, Auto Club Raceway at Pomona entered the final phases of the $4.5-million modernization project, which included the installation of permanent grandstand seats, half of which have seat backs.
In 2001, Auto Club Raceway at Pomona's entire 1,320-foot racing surface was repaved to extend the concrete launchpad from 330 to 660 feet. In 2006, luxury VIP box suites were built atop the east-side grandstands.
Well - what a disappointment this was. Firstly we were shocked to find out that you were NOT allowed to take alcohol into the festival like we have done in previous years. They were even searching camping chair bags to check for contraband. They did not even ask to see the tickets/wristbands. People were drinking their wine/beer they had brought to last them through the day and evening one swig after another rather than leave it behind. The reason they gave for not allowing alcohol was people behave badly - but then they provided booze tents.. so that argument doesn't hold any weight. 70% of the toilets were out of order and the rest were out of toilet roll. Staff walking around in ordinary clothes to spot people who had managed to sneak booze past them... and then bring the heavies in to remove them from the event. No big screens this year - food - well it was too expensive and too mediocre. Next year... we will be doing something else as they are keeping their 'new' rules... save your £40 a ticket and do something else.
