The 30th edition of the Pennzoil Fox Hunt presented by Jacksons Food Stores enjoyed beautiful weather, along with a strong turnout of fans and racers. The race featured the West Coast Top Sportsman Association and a full compliment of Gold Cup racing over two nights. In addition, the Bill Buckner Dodge Jet Car Challenge saw the "Warhawk", "Nitehawk", "Warped Speed" and "Beast" make exhibitions runs under the lights. Best of all, every lady was admitted free of charge!
