NHRA Museum - Pomona, CA

I finally made it to the Wally Parks NHRA Museum in Pomona, CA last week. For those of you that don't know Wally is a racing legend and pioneer for the sport. The Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum's mission is to celebrate the impact of motorsports on our culture. As stated on their website "we collect, preserve, exhibit and interpret the vehicles, stories, and artifacts that represent our affection for, and the influence of, automotive speed and style in all its forms. We are the place to view and learn about hot rods, customs, racecars and speed records, and the West Coast's role as the historic center for their past and present development." Next time you are in Pomona stop by to support the museum, http://www.museum.nhra.com/.
