The Shorty That Flew: Diamond Dave Miller's Insane 1980s Top Fuel Dragster

This is the story of a car that broke every convention, ran in the face of every theory, and in the end, proved a point that there is actually more than one way to succeed in Top Fuel. Diamond Dave Miller and Dennis Rollain got together in the 1980s and created a car that was odd, controversial, explosive, occasionally ill-handling, but ultimately fast. This is one of the great 1980s underdog stories from professional drag racing with two true characters teaming up to give everyone else all they could handle on the track. Learn how the car came to exist, the weird tech it used, Miller's surprise upon seeing it the first time, it's track record and more. Punctuated with actual period 1980s nitro burning video of the machine in action, this is the complete tale of a car that is still remembered fondly today.
