    Things were as basic as they would ever be. Guys in homebuilt hot rods going at it with the new OHV V8s from Detroit. What it would be like to go back in time!

    One of the things I love about early NHRA drag race footage is the welcoming ‘everyman’ compe***ive spirit. Here you see a full array of makes and models represented; VW’s, Full Size Sedans, stock Corvettes, G***ers, etc.

    Looks like 100s of cars parked. Where are all the people? And, what's with the hillbilly banjo music?
