The best part is, that is only a sample, there is an 88 minute video full of 70's Yorktown footage. Plus read this Maverick Racer Interviews http://beeonvideo.homestead.com/psyco701.html
I could watch Dyno Don making passes all day. Seeing the old cammer Maverick in action makes me miss him even more.
Kewl! Thanks for sharing.... I remember seeing Wild Bill Strewsberry & the LA Dart in the early 70's. I just love the wheel standers....
Every year there is a Gathering of old drag cars in York, PA. It is called the US 30 Nostalgia Nations. Anyone that enjoys seeing the old stuff should plan to attend. http://www.yorkus30.com/ Joe
those were the days when drag racing was THE REAL DEAL... I just watched some Drag racing and the funny cars and even some of the pro-stock cars hardly look like the cars they are supposed to represent... The only way I knew that John Force and his Daughter were supposed to be driving Mustangs was because of the painted on taillights and it had the word mustang painted on the car... I think the 70's era drag racing was the end of racing the real cars.. Back then you took a car off the factory assembly line and modded it out and made it go as fast as the car would handle. Now a days they build tube chasis and put fiberglass or carbon fiber bodies on the tube chasis and call them whatever they want... Gone are the days of old
