I first went to a dragstrip in 1965, with my older sister and her husband. We took his first drag car a Ford Falcon with a 260 V8 and a four speed. I remember watching him unbolt the exhaust from the headers, move it over to the side and install one bolt back in the header flange so it made the car now have open headers. Many cars over the years including a 1965 Mustang A couple of Corvettes and believe it or not Two Studebakers one A Lark with a 289 Studebaker engine and a Golden Hawk with an original 352 cu. in. Packard engine. Great times for sure.
PS- can you imagine how cool it would’ve been to have your dad driving one of these back in the day taking you to school and blowing away the kids who thought they were driving fast cars.? LOL
These are the "RIDES" that created drag racing, NOT the first to do it, BUT THE ONES THAT made everyone notice it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am proud to have lived in its time and own a 66 Satellite (slightly "MODIFIED" of course)
Look at those Beauties & hear them ROAR! What more could you want?! I know, 1 or 3 of those Magnificent Beasts! Thanks Again for another Excellent video. God how I wish I still had at least 1 of my Muscle Cars. Kick myself daily for not keeping at least one.
Beautiful Cars ! Me and my Son built a ‘67 Belvedere . Bored and stroked 440 , caged, tubbed with all the goodies . That thing is a lot of fun to drive on the street ,,,,,,, unless you get too brave .
Love this. I'll take the built heavy metal over the bought plastic and aluminum kiddy cars. Not everyone can build these machines but anyone can drive bought.
I quit racing because of brackets. On test and tune,figure out the good matches then go for it. F this lets try to match up a slower car to a faster one at the light. Never happened on the streets in late 70-mid 80s. Run what you brung and live with the loss.
I can't stand bracket racing the whole point is to have the fastest car if your scared your going to lose don't line up don't hold someone else back cos you can't hang run what you brung and hope you brung enough
The candy-striped wagon runs a 9.58 on a 9.5 dial and only hits 117mph in the lights! Watch it again, and notice how early the nose falls, WELL BEFORE EVEN THE FIRST MPH BEAM!!! That's on bad wagon MOPAR OF COURSE!!!! Second pass 9.51 on the 9.5 but this time a132 mph and still getting - OUT OF IT
How are these guys running bang-on their dial, in some cases right to the hundredth?? Is it electronics? It's like all the variables have been taken out and the whole day at the track is down to cutting a good light. I've been away from the starting line since my son's Jr Dragster days in the '00's, so I assume it's technology. Brackets are fun for the hobbyist that runs his street car on grudge nights, but that's a beautiful group of real race cars that I'd love to see actually try to outrun each other...

In 1966 NHRA Super Stock cars were doing 11's, not 9's. Seems like the rules here are just notional
🔥🤘
Thanks for watching 👀
What is the solution to the tire hop on the Plymouth at 5:40?
