Drag Racing HISTORY: The Ultimate Slingshot Dragster Compilation Video
This vintage slingshot dragster compilation video uncovers the history of more than 30 front engine dragsters that I've filmed at events like the Hot Rod Reunion, NSRA Street Rod Nationals and more. It also features stories I've told about a few of the front engine dragsters that my dad and I own. I enjoy studying these cars and telling the stories behind these things. Most of what you see in this video are legit dragsters, not recreations. The era from about 1958 through 1970 was very special for front engine dragsters, and it's so cool to see how many of these things survived. This video is merely a sample of the ones that are still out and about...so stay tuned as I'm continually filming more at events around the country.
