Cars On Main

Al McFayden in Tom Hoover's AA/FD

It is usually a sleepy little suburb of Milwaukee. For one day a year Lannon WI is turned into a mecca of hot rodding. Over 800 cars showed up to the 2022 Cars On Main. The car show spectators were also treated to some nitromethene. Doc Halladay brought his Telstar nostalgia funny car, Brian Kohlmann brought his gorgeous nitro coupe and Greg Barta brought the Tom Hoover Fish Bowl. It made for an outstanding day. With crowds on hand the nitro start ups were a real treat for all those people who have never been close to a top shelf drag racing machine. Our photo gallery and several start up videos. Make sure to scroll through all of it.
