Relive the golden age of drag racing! This channel features a collection of rare and incredible vintage drag racing photos. Witness the birth of nitro, iconic racers, and the evolution of these incredible machines.
I love Nostalgia Drag Racing especially Funny Cars and Front Engine Dragsters!
We run two alcohol nostalgia funny cars. One is Glory Daze, an original nitro 1967 Chevrolet Camaro funny car currently running Hilborn-injection on alcohol. The other is the Quarter Pounder a 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am running a blown big block chevy on alcohol. Both have run nostalgia events since 2007.
Big burnouts, dry hops, back up girls are the cornerstone of the show to celebrate the old days of drag racing.

FABulus Floppers...
Great pictures but you are WAAAAAY off on the subtitles...
I'm 55, the son of the photographer. I only have his stories, my memories, these photos and an occasional check on Bill Pratt's Drag List to put some facts to the photos. If you were there and know something we don't please take a little time to respond and let me know what I got wrong. Everyone would appreciate it I'm sure. I did have one typo pointed out by someone regarding the Boston Shaker of Kosty Ivanof where I accidentally type Strangler. The Boston Strangler was Arnie Karp.
BACK IN THE DAY HOLLYWOOD SPEEDWAY FL. SEEN ALOT OF THESE BEAUTIFUL HOT RODS 👀👍🇺🇸
Now that's what I'm talkin' bout!
70s nhra was great. I like that cars all looked different , now they all look the same.
Couldn't agree more. That's why I'm sharing my Dad's photos. He captured the time well using different angles and settings on his Minolta camera. A lot of the cars had great names. Wish they would have carried that on to the modern era.
Great quality pics!
Glad you liked them! 👍
Maple Grove WOW ... awesome photos of an awesome time !
My Dad worked (and raced) at Maple Grove and always kept his trusty camera around. He snapped a lot of the cool angles and shots from the starting line because of his job he had access. He'd be happy to know more folks are enjoying the memories.
Hi I caught 1 mistake. Kosti Ivonoff ran "The Boston Shaker " F/C.
Thanks! Good catch! Arnie Karp was the driver of the Boston Strangler. Some times the brain and the keyboard aren't in synch! I'll fact check myself this time...my fingers threw in an extra F. Ivanof is the way he spelled it.
And I forgot how his name was spelled
Great shots of these cars at The Grove. Thanks for the memories.
Thank you for taking the time to let me know that you're enjoying them. Plenty more to come! Be sure to like, share, subscribe and hit the notification bell so you know when I release more.
That C/G 55 Chevy made a good run against the rail job 3:30.
@@af4od02 Agreed. That 55 is bitchin. Gear- jamming, high-winding Chevy. 😎
Cool Dragster, what did it run?
It was a flag drop no-time race which was an 1/8 mile I believe. At the other track on Sunday it ran over a 100 in the eighth.
OK Thanks
I want those wheels on my Chevelle
Much better thanks !
Can't hear the car !
MAYBE YOU CAN HEAR THIS ONE!! ruclips.net/video/DoENzZ4aBLQ/видео.html
🧙♂️-- ah, the good ol daze, No space age computers be, just dual points + high output coil " Mallory " Good intake + exhaust of your choice, headers a hassle, stock ex. manifold much better for reliability, noise ect. Maybe a cam upgrade and anti pump up hydraulic lifters " stay away from solid lifters, too much adjustments too often! ( I'm talking about a good running street car here-- not an all out dragster ) And a slipper clutch on your radiator fan, not solid to water pump for less drag.👍👌🤠
Cool digger
Would rather hear the hemi than music.
@mikemeyer1791 - I couldn't agree more. ✌️😎 This is for you... ruclips.net/video/DoENzZ4aBLQ/видео.html
I do prefer a fuelie to gasoline
