Illegal street racing with your car had found its way to sanctioned tracks trough the history in the early 1949. That was the epic moment when the street driven cars began to modify into pure racing cars. However, after 65 years of tradition, the hot roders are still interested in real street cars that are fast on the strip as well. In this video you can see the history of street legal drag racing and all the information on the Fastest Street Car Shootout in the 1990s, the Pump Gas Drags in the 2000s, and of course today’s challenges facing Hot Rod Drag Week.
Finally, some more drag racing history here!
