These were the events I loved watching my late father race at as a kid. Makes me really miss my local drag strips.

That was the hit ticket in the 60s and 70s. All the A body guys did that for traction. You don't need an anti roll bar in drag racing, normally, you remove them for weight transfer.

Dude you need to look up some old school 409 racing from back in the day. That's how they all did it. It's a nostalgia racer.

[@tonygodbey9705]

dude on the 2nd bike has balls of steel, riding it out like that.

[@kevinu6004]

Urban Hillbilly da best channel for crazy action drag racing

[@johnclark1525]

These cars are incredibly quick. Some look like 11 second cars, and they run 8s!

[@cesarcrespo9757]

como si estuviera viendolos ahi son muy claros los videos

[@kevinu6004]

red car @1.50 looks so much like the car from years ago that got loose then took off like a rocket a famous video for a while! Sick footage as always and variety, keep safe

Why they so slow

[@davidpayne4315]

Real street I don't think so

[@RL-RL]

Why the lady @ 8:30 is celebrating I have no idea, they got beat. lol

[@racer774]

She was celebrating a safe run. Didn't you see her asking for blessings just before the run? She was quite worried at that time. Have a good one.

[@RL-RL]

@@racer774 Could be and I can see that.

[@kevinu6004]

could have been a personal beast

[@racer774]

@@kevinu6004 You mean personal best? That'd be another good reason she was so happy. Great post!

[@brucefritzges8759]

Enjoy these races while we can. We are going to shut down for a while. Also, Soon we may see more electric drag racing cars . Fast but quiet. Times change, but not always for the better.

Do you know what a car is🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@shorty808100]

There’s only three class’s that I see that’s not street, there’s pro, pro stock and pro mod that’s all I saw the way the class’s are split up is stupid especially all the pro stocks these new racers are idiot not one of those true street cars are street legal cause what y’all are calling true street I used to race and my shit went to the track on a trailer but then again 5 gallons of gas ain’t gonna get your far at 2-3 Mpg or less I had to top off after every run
