Drag Racing in 1958

13:58, it has 4 back tires and blazed them all the way down the track, WIN.
26:10, blower mounted sideways in front of the engine, WIN.

Cool vid, Dom!
 
That's a really great video Dom!

DTR + 4.10's + Eaton swap = Wreeeeeeeeeeeeeeedom
 
Dom you'd have loved running that hairy short wheel base digger with the Potvin front supercharged small block Chebby,those things were a real handful!
I dig that old Chrysler wagon,probably had the early hemi in it.
 
That was really cool...

Wonder why they uploaded it as 1958?? The meet was Sept 3-7 1959...

I was real suspicious after seeing a '60 Buick at 12:28 and later there is a poster at 16:08 with date...

The black 2 dr Buick? That was a 59,the 60 had rounded 'fins",the 59's had sharp edge fins all around.
You should see the chick with the camera now,80 something years old :eek:
 
I was in high school in the sixties and lived less than a two hour drive from three drag strips. The film brought back some great memories. Thanks Dom
