If you're here, it's because you love the cars of the GASSER Era.  Maybe like us, you grew up attending Sixties drag races where you watched in awe as "Big John" Mazmanian's gorgeous candy apple red coupe staged against Stone, Woods & Cook.  We got hooked on Gassers at that time and maybe you did too.  You don’t have to own a race car or rod to be in the club.  All you have to do is love the stars and cars of the GASSER Era.

Gasser Magazine™ is arguably the best member-supported car club mag in the world.  Members submit the articles and pictures and only members can advertise in the Swap Meet section.  Costs you nothing.  Who knows, the car of your dreams or mine may be in the next issue.

What continues to amaze me is the barn finds.  Guys keep discovering old GASSERS in garages and barns across the US.  My brother found his in an airport hanger.  It had been parked there right after it's last race in 1967.  The 41Willys coupe was dusty but untouched and complete.  They're still out there.

The 2009 GASSER Reunion™ unbelievable. More than twice as many cars and fans as last year. Coming Next...The 2009 GASSER Nationals™, Sept. 12-13, Thompson, Ohio. You can download an entry form here(put in link) or from the Events page. See you there!

We’re a car club but what we really are is a group of guys and gals who love the cars and stars of the Sixties’ GASSER scene.  While Willys were the superstars, the Anglias, Austins, Model A’s, early-to-mid Fifties Chevies and more filled out the Gasser staging lanes - - just like they do at our GASSER Reunions. And, the next Reunion is. . . Sept. 12-13, 2009 at Thompson Raceway Park--a truly Sixties-style dragstrip.  The surface and facilities are top-notch without being over-the-top. It’s like it was in the day. Perfect.

If you haven’t been there, make plans to attend next June.  You’ll love it.  Rain or shine, bring an umbrella. . .its Ohio and showers come and go but seldom stop the show.  If it’s like it was at the last one, bring sunblock!  You’ll meet GASSER Legends like Ohio George Montgomery, Big John Mazmanian’s driver - Bones Balogh, Barbara Hamilton, the S & S Racing team and many more.

Club Rep Gene Catoe is struggling but recovering.  He thanks you for your ‘Get Well’ cards, emails and phone calls.  Gene said, "Tell them we have plenty of great looking 2009 GASSER Nats t-shirts and in all sizes!"  When the Nats’ rained out, Gene went home with boxes and boxes of great t-shirts.  Get a couple and keep him moving (good physical therapy)!

Thanks again for being who you are.  I couldn’t do the magazine without your contribution of photos of your cars, the events you attend and the stories about you and your cars.  This magazine is your magazine.  See you in Ohio Sept. 12-13, 2009!  If you want to come, check back here soon.  An entry form will be available soon.

Join the club, you'll be glad you did.
