Cacklefest would not miss this event!!

California Hot Rod Reunion - Nitro Head Apparel - CacklefestHow the California Hot Rod Reunion/CHRR Cacklefest came to be… When the CHRR first started, there were nine beautifully restored famed front engine top fuel dragsters which competed in the 60’s and early 70’s on race tracks across the county like the famed Famoso Drag Strip. These amazing cars were lined up behind the pit side grandstands called "Memory Lane." Over the years many more of these unbelievable machines have been found and restored.  In 1999, with the assistance of Bill Pits and his beautifully restored Magicar, and the other eight restored dragsters, the "Twilight Memorial" was created.  Bill Pitts thought it would be great to hear, and see these restored race cars running.  Hence the Cacklefest begun the cars would be loaded with Nitro and statically started.  The Cacklefest has evolved over years to include over 80 of these beautifully restored race cars that now push start down the return road to give the fans a dose of history.

Cacklefest at the CHRR 2013




It was after that first "Twilight Memorial" CHRR starting line presentation, that the idea began to surface about "rapid fire" push starting a bunch of vintage fuel cars, like the old days of Famoso, as a feature of the 2000 CHRR. It was so tentative that we did not even announce it in pre event promo. When I began to take stock of the existing cars, capable of being push started, there appeared to be about 6 to 8 realistic possibilities, a few of which were "ready to go" (Chrisman, Kuhl & Olson, & G-B-P) Bill Pitts had to put a clutch in his car, and during this period. The Vagabond could be fired, but was not capable of being push started. The Steinegger and Eshenbaugh car was a pleasant surprise and emerged unannounced, but I believe it was ready to go all along.

Anyway, when I told Greg that it looked like I could probably put 6 to 8 cars on the track, cackling all at once, he said something to the effect, "we'll have a regular Cacklefest". Little did I know, or appreciate at the time, what Greg's simple play on words would result in. – www.cacklefest.com
Some History of the Poachers ‘Cacklecar

As well as all the amazing hot rods, funny cars, dragsters and other fanatic favorites, there are golf cart rentals, a motorhome/camping area, and even a parade.

The 2014 Grand Marshal will be Mike Dunn and the Honorees are Bob Brooks, the "Glass Slipper Team" of Cortopassi Brothers & Butler, Hugh Tucker, Dennis Varni and Sid Waterman.

It’s going to be some fun, do not miss this!!

What is Nitro Head Apparel?

We are action sports enthusiasts and we wanted to be able to share with the world our passion for extreme sports activities through nostalgic apparel, accessories and racing gear!

After searching the web we discovered no one had created the type of products we were looking for….

Since our passions encompassed sports such as boat, car, and motorcycle racing, and many other action sports, we decided to create a company that catered to passionate sports individuals like ourselves.  As we were aware, action sports activities are for all ages, and therefore we would design products for everyone no matter what their age, gender, or interest.

In early 2009 a decision was made to create a company that catered to action sports individual.  After much discussion NitroHead Racing Inc. was created.  In order to better serve our customers we have recruited both young and seasoned action sports individuals to help design state of the art products.  It was also very important to have both men and women on our team.  Everyone involved with NitroHead Racing has some affiliation with an action sport.


Our slogan “Fuel the Passion” is what we do at NitroHead Racing.

Over the years NitroHead has grown to include both classic and modern action sports apparel for men, woman, and youth individuals.  In addition, we at NitroHead have developed a revolutionary product to share with the world one’s passion for life.   Through an innovative process we are able to create individual custom imaged trailer hitch covers.  These covers are unique in that they have an extremely sharp, and a clear three dimensional image with special UV protection preventing premature fading. Our covers have been designed for famous racers such as John Force, Tom McEwen, Raymond Beatle, the Grave Digger Monster Truck, our Firefighters and Alexas Dejoria.  We are also proud to say our custom aluminum trailer hitch covers are 100% made here in the US, keeping our jobs here in America.

We continue to develop new and innovative products to meet our customer’s passions. Currently our motorsports apparel consists of a large variety of extreme sport related nostalgia including V-neck and T-shirts, flat bill and flex fit hats, hoodies sweatshirts, Nitro Head gear, Rockabilly gear, Fathead racing wall decals and Greaser decals.NitroHead Racing is also now an authorized dealer for Kalitta Motorsports.  We are proud to be associated with Kalitta Motorsports as they truly exemplify the slogan “Fuel the Passion”!
One of the important programs NitroHead Racing has embraced is the concept of giving back.  As a result, we have supported programs such as Make a Wish foundation, (using our race cars to allow terminally ill children to have their wishes granted).  We have also given back to the sport of racing by sponsoring individuals such as Grant Downing, James Day, Cameron Ferre, and John McKindley.

Our dedication to extreme sports and passion for motorsports and racing nostalgia is evident in the creation and production of all the products we offer at Nitro Head!
