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 recent 2008 GASSER Reunion™ was wonderful.  We were blessed with three days of blue skies, hot racing and cool cars.  Sadly, we mourned the passing of Randy Sacksteder, owner/driver of the gorgeous HEMI-FIED Willys.  Cancer took Randy this year and his brother the year before.  Both were super guys who loved drag racing.  The love for the sport must be in the blood, because Randy's nephew will be behind the wheel of the Hemi-Fied Willys in the near future.

Club Rep Gene Catoe is recovering from his surgeries and is planning on being at the Sept. 13-14th GASSER Nationals™ at Thompson Raceway Park.  Even though he couldn't make the Reunion, he sent his son (Chris) and his brother (Jack) in his place.  Both did a great job running the club tent and making friends with mason jars of North Carolina 'punch'.  Look for Gene, Chris and Jack at the upcoming GASSER Nationals.  If you want to come, an entry form can be found by clicking here: EVENTS or at tab at the top of this page.  You'll have a memorable time and who knows...we might even have two days of SUNSHINE!

June 2007 Gasser Reunion™ Remembrances: Ed Iskendarian (the CAMFATHER himself) came to the event, LOVED it and was loved by all who had a chance to meet this hot rodding legend.  Ed is 86 years young, sharp as a lobe on a flathead cam, remembers everything and tells the most captivating stories of the early days of drag racing.  Ohio George Montgomery joined Ed and Bones Balogh at the club tent where they all autographed pictures and met their many fans.  The famed S&S Racing Team were the Grand Marshals and Dave Hales, Fred Bear, Gene Altizer and Pork Zartman were all there.  Although KS Pittman couldn’t be there, LaVaunn Pittman, his wife, stood in for him and was loved by all who met her.

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