Thanks John for posting these 3 wonderful clips of the great Nationals that were held in T town! What a SHAME it had to go away. Big names & big sponsors....so goes the sport in the name of progress. Good stuff, thx again!
Being a very big fan of vintage drag racing history this is an excellent video with top named drivers, look at the very young Don Garlits and Don the Snake Prudhomme. Thank you for sharing
