of top racers like Don "The Snake" Prudhomme, "Big
Daddy" Don Garlits, Ronnie Sox, "Dyno Don" Nicholson,
Tom "Mongoose" McEwen, Tommy Ivo, Connie Kalitta, and
dozens more, along with detailed insights into the incredibly
cool machinery that these heroes of the quarter mile pedaled down
the track. He includes everything from both front- and rear-engine
dragsters to funny cars, gassers, altereds, pro stocks, and even
exhibition cars. The sights, smells, and sounds of the golden
age of drag racing come to life through these photos and provide
a guaranteed trip down memory lane for any drag racing fan.
