The idea here was to compare the slowest class in drag racing to one of the quickest sports cars you could buy at the time, to show the viewers how fast a sport drag racing is.



The race is about half way through the clip.
Strittan, Thanks for the link, this is something I'd probably never find on my own. .....As far as your TV coverage , this is far more interesting than anything that ESPN and NHRA put on the air......I can only guess at what the announcer is saying ,but it still makes more sense to me than listining to Paul Page!.................Tom
