Synopsis

Diggers, funny cars and more of the best vintage drag racers of the late 1950s and 1960s! Genat describes each car's race history and looks at well-known drivers and tuners of the era. See Melvin Heath's Dragster, Don Garlits' Swamp Rat 1, Mickey Weise's 1968 Hemi Dart, and many others. Super Stock drag racing of the 1960s is covered extensively, most notably the radically altered stock bodied vehicles that would forever change the face of drag racing.
