70's Drag Racing Video

These videos serve as a reminder of how great professional drag racing was back in the '70s. It was truly the golden era of the sport. The videos also help illustrate how much the NHRA sucks today. Unfortunately, drag racing has become too much like NASCAR -- it's all about corporate money, product endorsements, sanitized racing, etc. It's a total snooze-fest.

I kind of feel sorry for car enthusiasts who are too young to remember the days of the Snake, the Mongoose, the Ace, and the other greats.
