- The Vintage Drags at the Allentown Fairgrounds is one of our favorite local events, and we are so happy it has returned in 2021. The event was started by our friend Ej Kowalski and Bill Rowe, and they had two successful events in 2019. Matt brought out the Pagoda City Coupe to race, and Mike brought a helmet to ride along! There will be a fall event on October 16th & 17th so be sure to mark it on your calendar!!

I am so inspired to build John Milners 32 Ford 5 window and drop a 409 in it and enjoy life again!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!! YOU MADE MY DAY!!!
You damn kids and your Hotrods! Somebodies going to get hurt!
That looked like the most fun you can have with your pants on. Enjoy
This was awesome. Great to see these vintage hot rods in action. Looks like a really fun day!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I HAD SO MUCH FUN!!!! A MUST-WATCH!!!!
That's one sketchy, slippery track! But that's probably how it was done back in the day.
Cool there's so many locals with such cool rides that fit this genre/era.
Love me these old timey drag races! It's like listening to a kick ass '60's rock band after nothing but hair bands, disco, and EDM.
You’re right “that was fun”, thanks for bringing us along for the ride. It really warms my heart to see you kids have so much fun with those old “Jalopys”. Let the good times roll!
I LOVE MY HOT ROD FAMILY & MY ROD & CUSTOM FAMILY!!!!
Tks for the video's ,,great seeing all the vintage rides an bikes..looks like fun
The cars are cool, but who else besides myself was diggin' on the flag lady??
Thanks, Red, for being out there all day!
The grins on your faces say it all....
Man, i love to see vintage cars being raced. that shutdown lane is super sketchy though.
Thanks Mike and Matt...enjoyed this video...You did better this year...old Coupe ran good.
Love what you do Matt . We do drags on the clay at our bar down here in New Zealand lots of fun .😎🇳🇿
What a great event wish they had something like that around here.
Love seeing old iron on the track.
Best fun you can have while still grinning. I can't mention the best fun you can have without grinning. I would have loved to be there. I'll take as much of this stuff as you care to offer. Thanks heaps.
Dale Nielsen love that you call them "Jalopys"
Hey Matt & Mike
That was a lot of fun !
Nice collection of cars and bikes turned out for the event.
Mike if you would get busy on your own car you would not have the problem of fitment with or without a helmet !
GET ER DONE !
Thanx Guys
Fun day thank for the share.
Great video. I especially like hearing all that old iron run. So that set-up at 1:50. More info please. The story and the creation
of it would make a great video.
👍👍👍 great video, great brain bucket ya got there Matt,😂😂😂😂😂
You had the best looking car there by far!!!
Everyone of those cars were fricken incredible tho!!
Matt awesome drags, it’s great to see the old cars! Thanks for sharing. Kevin
Thanks to your videos I've gone out and bought myself another project car - a 1940 Ford Tudor!
Oh, that was fun to watch. Thank you!
WOW! Looks like a lot of fun, I'm jealous for sure! 😁✌🏻🇺🇸

Looks like a blast
I 👍 Like Hot 🚙 Rods.
Matt .. your car is a true definition of a door slammer. Haha
Very Vey cool!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👍👍👍
Friggen'awesome video to watch on a lazy Sunday morning.
Loved the look on your face Matt as you wear at the starting line.
Thanks Matt and Mike.
It's great to see old cars being driven hard!
BTW, loved that janky blower setup in the black coupe! Wouldn't mind seeing a feature vid on that car.
OUTSTANDING!!!!!
Runs damn good Matt !
Looks like alot of fun!! I just watched this race on Hot rod workshop CZcams channel. Cool to see from different perspectives. 🍻
T.R.O.G. Wit no sand ! 🤘🏼
Thanks Matt and Mike. That looked like a lot of fun.
Obviously this track no longer holds full circle rack events?? Good times, thanks for sharing.

I can't lie, this vidya makes me so jellous.
Great fun video, Matt. I have a 1953 publication 'Best Hot Rods' and watching your day ay Allentown was like what it must have been like back in those days. Keep the faith alive, guys.
Looked to be a fun day, open up those flatheads. 👍👍
Thank you very much for the shout out fellas! Such an awesome day racing these old machines. Hope to do it all again in October!
Anytime man!
Great fun thanks 😊😀👍
I love this! Great video!
Love to see racing's roots...
Looks like barrels of fun. Close quarters though.
looked like a blast. good times!!
Well, they wouldn't dare let me race my first hot-rod; the insurance companies would scream!
Fantastic event!💪🍻 Beautiful shots from inside the hot rod during the race! The hot rods that participated were spectacular, and the Harley ones with the flathead engines I love them! Sooner or later I have to be able to get one!❤
Nice !! Fun video men !! Love that stuff !!
Looks like fun
Thanks that was great fun
Looks like a fun day. Great to see those old hot rods run as there were intended. Couldn't help but be a little curious about what looked to be an old Indy racer.
Soo killer!!!
Great videos
Fantastic vid give us more
Cool stuff there!
Loads of fun
That looked like fun
Great vid.
That was fun!
Matt & Mike...so cool!! Your coupe seems to be pretty fast!! Matt, your helmet says it all!! Thankyou for sharing!!
great !
Nice helmet Matt lol mikes a trooper cool video as ushual
Have you been to the T.R.O.G. in Wildwood NJ. I think its something you would be interested in. This year it will be on October 1 to 3.
🤘🏼
That was so Cool
Brilliant Matt pendine is good but that looks great fun think my model A would give you a good run tho lol
Hey Mike, you look comfy! That's the the sad thing, anyone 6 ft and over won't fit well in a Model A!
Excellent!! Please do this with all your cars as a matter of course they won't be complete without a competitive test ride.
What the hell is that thing on top of the engine @ 1.49?
Oh, and I forgot to ask Matt, That vintage helmet you was wearing, Swap meet find or???? I have a few of them, buy them when ever I find them cheap enough.
Yep! Old dirt racers helmet!
@marcia barker....#7. way too cool!
That place looks almost IDENTICAL to the football ground / esplanade park here in Fremantle, Western Australia .. I dont know if that Pines are Norfolk pines like ours. but they look pretty damn close.
TOO COOL!
Great Video. #STAYSAFE #PHILLYPHILLY 🇺🇸
man o man, just somethin about a bitchin vintage 5 window that tugs on my heart strings.
Back in the day they used top parts of ww2 double buckle combat boots to secure the doors
Fun fun fun 😂😂😂
I’d love to build one to bring up and race there, that would be so fricken cool!! My sister lives in Allentown
You guys really know how to live, you know that?
We’re trying!
Way, way cool
Are they having this Again this year
Wow thought fvwre would be more spectators than that. But it looks like fun!
I think you grabbed Mike's helmet and he got yours I know you were trying to go for vintage but this is just from my line of site you was a little small but loved watching the video I mean who wouldn't old school drag racing
Few things missing. Where are all the skirts. No body raced unless there was a snatch to impress back then.
I reckon a few sno-cones were lost by people scrambling across the runoff area!
Shut down lanes are a little yikes looks like a great time
Exactly!
Missed Kate getting to flag though.
Mike, are we going to see you build a bike on the channel someday?
That 5 window at 2:26 is going to haunt me for a while.
I don't like fully fender education '32 5W, but I have to agree, that is beautiful 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hey MATT ,that y- block didn't win by much.
When you can drive home after reading a day of racing,it a good day 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Oh crap, I didn't know you guys were in pa, do you guys welcome visitors by chance?
Sundays. Send an email if you want to visit
It looked like you did pretty good for the day. Did the new heads help you out any?
Not any faster but ran way cooler
Did I see right 1st gear shut door, 2nd gear look at door ok still shut, 3rd gear
I only saw one six. Does anyone know the make?
No parachute to slow you down?
Can't believe a race and no Pete with 32 not attending He is probably checking out 32B-400 or 32sedan delivery that's been stashed for 50yrs or so just saying. Also guy's back in the day must had smaller heads because every vintage helmet I found can barely get on.
Jeez Matt, did you borrow some local kids BMX helmet it looked way too small for you 🤣🤣🤣
It’s a vintage circle track racer helmet. That’s how they were.
I’d rather hear the engines than that horrible rock loop
Very brave, thrashing on a super old car you have to drive home . . . not smart but very, very brave. LOL 🤣😂😅
