    I love these nostalgia races a lot more than the NHRA 1,000 foot races of today. Thanks for posting.

    Without an equal. Nitro American produces the best drag racing videos on all of TH-cam.

    I now live a long way from any drag strip, I like my quiet little country town. But I grew up go to Pomona, Bakersfield, Sonoma, Sacramento, you name it in California. My dad took me everywhere there was racing,even Sprint Cars.

    Greetings from England. Another superb video... love your editing style and the fantastic sound & video quality.

    I love the top ends shots in this video, because you can hear the sounds of the engines in the shutdown area. To me those are some of the coolest sounds, & are rarely heard.

    Thanks Carl...you couldn't have said anything better than that for a compliment! All the work is worth it to hear the things you all say about my videos. I guess I was right about there being an audience that sees Drag Racing the way I see it.

  • @FSTORNG

    DUDE! That was your best video yet! Love the top end shots. Keep em coming.

    I love the way these dragsters shake the air around them. There is nothing more awesome than a blown nitro engine roaring down the track!!

    Adam Sorokin's father, Mike, won the March meet in 1966. He drove "The Surfers", AA/FD.

    I like how you overlap the sound with different clips...Very creative and artistic!

    soooooooooooooooooo stoked the video is back!!!!!!
    les, you rule.
    thank you !!!!!!!

    Coolest thing is seeing the run filmed from the camera mounted up high at the end of the track. A whole new perspective, especially on Sound. And you can see just how fast the cars accelerate this way. Where when you watch the cars leave the starting line, you don't get this perspective at all.

    @CSXer 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great vid and action! GREAT camera angles! THANX for posting!!!

  • @KreigsMarine2
    @KreigsMarine2 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Man I love watching them run at night!!!

  • @NitroAmerica
    @NitroAmerica  12 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Definitely some hairy moments during Nostalgia Top Fuel; they are the most exciting cars in drag racing to watch at the top end....also I was up on a ladder.

  • @EmpEntTV
    @EmpEntTV 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Les, awesome production, your best work yet!

  • @VGMurders
    @VGMurders 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    At exactly 13:20 in the video someone(Dan Horan Jr) stays on the Loud pedal for an extra 500 feet +/-!!!!!! This is best drag racing footage I have ever seen.

    Back when funny cars actually looked like the street cars they were based on.

    Les is becoming the MASTER!!!! Thanks!

  • @MoxieMike66
    @MoxieMike66 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I really want to see a meet like that here in the Northeast, preferably at our track (New England Dragway). I remember alot of these cars(the originals) when I was a kid and my dad used to run a BB/GD and I remember push starting it! LOL! We've got a Nostalgia meet with some pretty good cars now but not like this I don't think.

  • @dmpyron2
    @dmpyron2 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My compliments!!!! Excellent work. I'm a subscriber now.
    Audio problems (drop outs). My iPhone or Murphy making a visit?

    I'm not a Ford guy (strictly MOPAR), but I'll admit I really like the look of the older Mustang bodied FCs. ;)

    I just don't understand how the greatest track and the greatest cars have such a small crowd.

  • @mrtomsr
    @mrtomsr 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Beautiful work. Watching this made me, once again, realize why i want to dope slap ESPN for their drag coverage, I can't listen to the cars. Thank you for posting this, I will share with everyone I know.

    Beautiful editing and camera work. Makes that 1,000 feet stuff seem like kindergarten. Screw ESPN and their unnecessary voice overs. I rather hear the music of the race cars. Great work, I hope to see more.

    @NitroAmerica ,no scary moments during those low level recordings at the finish line?

      You may be a believer but this video has nothing to do with your faith.
