that Topeka qualifying fire for scott kalitta alongside blaine Johnson.... two truly nice guys at the track really good racers and still missed to this day by everyone who knows the sport.... R.I.P. Scott and Blaine
Not gonna lie or not comment as I am here in the sweet summer of June of the year 2022 San Diego, CA !!! I went to NHRA as a sophomore when I was at the infamous Rim of the World High-school located up in the San Bernardino California mountains y’all!! I somehow was enrolled in a video media production class and dog-gone-it we went to NHRA and our class WON the for best filming out of a gripppp of schools! All I gotta say is woooooo-doggyyyyy! What goes around comes back around!? Ha! Thanks for these OG videos. Hopefully I’ll find ours in the YT world mix! Peace & p.s. Happy 80th Birthday Paul McCartney:)!
I read alot of stories of Al Hoffman being a bad-ass. I had a chance to see the guy on race day. I guess he did not let people fuck with him and i think it's the way to go. Real guy in a real world. Thanks Al and may you rest in peace.
Back in the good ole days...I sure miss the comraderies; the blunt, no excuse interviews; the NOT endless plugs for their sponsors; and the fair treatment and mature attitudes of the drivers. Sigh...
does anyone know why other nhra seasons were (apparently) recently deleted? i had a playlist from 90-96 & i just noticed only drag racing 91 is listed.
Hey, I know this is a long shot on an old video like this, but does anyone here know where I can find an NHRA schedule from 1994? (Or do they show one in this video that I somehow managed to miss? xD) Just a list of dates will suffice, I don't need a physical copy or anything. Thanks in advance!
Wish I knew that too! It's at the very end of the 1994 thrills and spills i posted too with all the winners celebrations. I was hoping I'd get a copyright tag so it told me the artist.
@ 59:20 the 1994 Pro stock bike season AKA David Schultz @ 1:02:25 an tribute to the ALMIGHTY power of milk @ 1:02:33 David Schultz 1st in the points then daylight 2nd
they should tell the allderman story as it was..(truth) he was permanently suspended for drug conspiracy charges and was allowed to reapply after 2 years..the racing back then set new records almost every race..in almost every class.
You want the truth? He was suspended by NHRA for 2 years because he was found guilty of conspiracy to traffic. He paid his debt to society and was reinstated by NHRA for his return for the 1994 season.
From what i have been doing lately you get those "Matched third Party Content" Copyright tags telling you the names of the song and the composer when it's something by APM, but the KPM songs don't get those tags.
Steve Evans and Dave McClelland. Classic! Thanks for the upload!
