SUPER/STOCKERS OF THE 1960's THE YEARS OF CHANGE 1965 - 1969

[@dominickmarge5049]

Love watching these old racing videos thank you for letting me to step back in time

[@brendasnider7158]

Cars and Drivers that had personality ,style,and no computers !

[@bigthunder2860]

Thanks for showing the cars that made me so happy to watch racing on the weekends

[@midnightrider5797]

This was the purest drag racing today's racing relies on computerized technology almost self driving car's.

[@Scarecrow-skate-racing-videos]

I don't watch the new cars very often, I didn't realize how much technology took over, I bet nascar's the same.

About 10 years ago I bought a single quad 427 High Riser intake manifold that someone had inscribed "Lady Bug" by hand on one of the runners. The guy that sold it to me had no idea what that meant. At the time, Net searches revealed nothing, so I assumed it was just some weirdness, maybe some dude's wife's nickname or something. Watching this vid at 5:54, I now know where this part came from. Keep up the good work, Jim!

[@craigcontofalsky4387]

I remember most of those cars and the girls!!! I raced at Thompson, Dragway 42 and Norwalk Raceway Park. Lots of fond memories!

[@extramile150]

these dvd's are worth every penny

[@nycsongman9758]

@6:20 Tom “the Snake” Jones, one of the original godfathers of Dyno Don’s brand-new ‘65 factory monster Comet, in gazing at the car today, looks like he’s trying not to weep.

[@davidpayne4315]

This is what today's pro stock should be

[@dominickmarge5049]

Good old days. Wish I could go back

[@djthedj3238]

Thanks for the great video guys and gals memories''

[@budspaulding7121]

What a great time period this was for drag racing fans, and racers alike, seems like yesterday.....

[@bradzimmerman3171]

lol Sunday after "church "& playing MAKE BELIEVE they get serious and go drag racing- those where the days

[@Keplerb-od1lr]

Those altered wheelbase cars were awesome

[@68dart]

Never expected to see any Drag Racing on video from Palm Beach International Raceway but there it is , and with a car I remember well and have a pic of , The Saint out of Saint Augustine FL. Thankyou

[@magnatron7734]

During the wheel standers at 3:00 you can hear the Boston band the Cars song “Just what I needed” 1978 lol

[@8.2deck]

I was added in i think

[@Red-rl1xx]

Awesome video! All kinds of cool stuff!

[@jsteganius6969]

Excellent!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!!

[@JohnW1711stock]

Thanks to Jim Amos for all his work. I appreciate his promotional videos of the 422 Allstars N/SS series. Jim videoed drivers and races of that series. I raced a white 66 Chevelle in the 422 Allstars. Thanks to Burtonsville Performance Machine Service for building me a trouble free constant engine.

[@jackkeller3172]

Fantastic video God bless and keep up the good work

[@whytebearconcepts]

LOL, I can remember my oldest brother trailering his car to church on Sunday mornings, and getting the Priest to Bless the car. He won pretty regularly so maybe there was something to it. He always gave 10% of his winnings.

[@Scarecrow-skate-racing-videos]

😂😂

[@davidefird6455]

So sorry they didn’t mention Concord Drag Strip (Concord NC). Neighbor to World 600 Speedway. What a great raceway.

[@jimolson8424]

I have a original picture of Hubert Platt in staging at Minnesota Dragways standing by his 64 427 Falcon Iowa shaker...

[@donalddday7741]

Fremont Raceway was the strip near where i grew up,use to go to watch

[@MRNOBODY023]

badass video

[@donalddday7741]

California Flashed lived down the road from Grand parents in Visalia,California remember watching him test it out on the street

[@Chryco_5126]

The golden years of Drag racing , oddly you only said who actually won 1 race though

[@davidcoggins8891]

The altered wheelbase cars were the forerunners to funny cars, correct?

[@lemham4565]

Yes they were, I saw most of those cars live in the 60's. I used to race B pure stock with my 67 SS396 CHEVELLE. Those sure we're the days.

[@dannyruble5488]

LEM HAM F/PS ‘66 GTO .

[@MAPRTX]

REAL RACING NOT LIKE TODAY

[@phillipbroady1181]

You are right about that

[@8.2deck]

Seems pretty real to me still

[@brucecarland1096]

Those were the days

[@jamesdamron2065]

The dragula sits above a bar in jersey!!

[@Red-rl1xx]

Man! They wouldn't allow somebody to ride in the back of that wheelstanding truck today, would they? I'm surprised they allowed it then.

[@JW...-oj5iw]

Red 13 ... The Legendary Back up Pickup. Great entertainment.

[@edwardbalcomb4514]

Broadway Bob at Great Lakes Dragaway did that and more back in the day.

[@j.g.4880]

Early 70's I remember riding shotgun down the quarter mile with my brother in law at the wheel and his Olympia beer can on the dash. This was at the Hawaii Raceway Park on Oahu. The drag strip closed at any time from 3:30 am to 5:30 am on any Sat or Sun every week, opening at 6pm. Stock at the time went anywhere from low 13's to high 11's Was as fun as a cup and throw fart.

[@nickwells3991]

I saw an interview with the guy in the bed of that wheelstander,and he said that it wasn't planned,and that he came real close to falling out!

[@covinomartinez6048]

"At one point, it looks like she almost fell out and underneath the vehicle!

[@hotrodtrucker88]

well where is your full length video?

[@Red-rl1xx]

Check it out! The Munster's Dragula! I've got a diecast version of this!

[@hansgruber650]

S/S was the best class ever.

[@amosgourdon7366]

Does anyone remember Laplace drag way in Louisiana... THATS WERE I SAW ALOT OF THESE CAARS...

[@stevetidd9135]

At Fremont drag strip waited till the loud roar of the engines then knew everyone’s attention was on that race then hopped the chain link fence. Was only 12, or 13 years. Didn’t have the $3.00 entrance. Just the $1.00 pit pass fee

[@dannyruble5488]

steve tidd how old are you? I think that was entrance fee for me when l ran my Corvair and ,later, GTO on Wednesday Grudge Nights . But, all is relative. I was making 2.54 and car payments of 81.99 on the Pontiac after the corvair down and the blonde gave me the buck fifty pick up payment. Those were the days.

[@brucecarney4416]

gassers, altereds bht not super stocks sorry charley !

[@donalddday7741]

my X use to date Hairy Canary Jr.

[@botomblin323]

History is good but racing is better, good bye

[@kurtpoblenz2741]

The only way Jenkins could “beat up” on the hemis , is the nova weighing 700 lbs less. To put that in perspective, a fully dressed 440 weighs 670 lbs. I’d love to see the nova run with a 440 in the trunk for ballast 😂😂😂😂

[@Diesel257]

"... a YANKEE car.." 😆😆😆

[@daryllect6659]

Altered wheelbase cars are boring.
