Summary: Coming from the back roads of America after the second world war, drag racing's roots were planted on dry lake beds like those found in the Mojave Desert, where hot rodders had come since the early 1930s to satisfy their need...their need for speed! One could even argue that drag racing was born with Wally Parks, who nearly four decades after his birth in 1913 would found drag racing's most successful and influential sanctioning body. But ultimately, the heart and soul of racing lies within the daredevil spirit of the human heart.
In this free video series, our expert Tina Stull will teach you how to get ready for the big race. She discusses the safety equipment you'll need, and how to get your engine ready for the big race.
