Remembering Eric RickmanA Hot Rod Bio of Eric Rickman.. He Has Been There, Done That - And Shot the Pictures To Prove It!Not many of us can lay claim to standing close enough to postwar roaring track roadsters to get covered in clay. So few participants of Bonneville's first Speed Week survive, that the SCTA easily fit all of these '49ers into a small group photo. Fifty-eight years after the Oakland Roadster Show opened, it's rare to encounter someone who attended the first one. Fewer still traveled all the way to Mexico the following year to launch the La Carrera Panamericana series. Nearly no one still alive witnessed, in its rain-soaked entirety, the '55 NHRA Nationals that opened in Kansas but closed in Arizona several weeks later. Only four creatures on the planet claim charter membership in the revolutionary Drag Safari, touring the country like missionaries, spreading the gospel according to Wally Parks: safe quarter-mile competition in standardized classes, sanctioned by the National Hot Rod Association.
