History Early drag racing photos

As a kid I always thought this was THE BEST part of watch'in 'the-big-boys' get ready to go at it!
Push start 'em....they go down the strip... and by the time they came roaring back ..many a young boy was "stiff" with excitement!!
Then they did their burnout and their team would roll 'em back in their tracks! By then we were breathing in short gasps...partly because of the tire and fuel fumes...partly because of the anticipation!!
Then like other "events" in a young mans life..after the foreplay... the 7 or 8 seconds(back then!) explosion of excitement was....over. Until the next team of racers.
Super Stockers and A/FX'ers also 'jacked-up-the-excitement'!
Now days.......Eh......it's over before it gets good to 'ya!
