Excellent movie! When the music started, I thought I was watching a movie in Boy's Health Class in the early sixties. I used to watch Otie's Automotive at Dragway 42 all the time. Ah, the good old days! And "in living color" no less. How is the leg and blood clot doing? Better I hope! You're in my prayers. Aaron Dupont

That was GREAT!

A few things caught my attention:

The music was great! Songs from before Rock'n'Roll.

The Green Monster Allison powered car - amazing!

Lastly - How the NHRA totally legitimized the sport of drag racing.
