Tales from the Drag Strip: Memorable Stories from the Greatest Drag Racer of All Time (Tales from the Team)

Since the moment that young men began modifying and personalizing their automobiles back in the 1940s and â€™50s, â€œBig Daddyâ€ Don Garlits was squarely in the thick of this intoxicating pursuit. Tales from the Drag Strip with â€œBig Daddyâ€ Don Garlits is a first-person account of the many memorable experiences this drag racing icon has lived through in his half-century of nitromethane-fueled exploits. The many races, racers, race fans, and race tracks that have touched his colorful career are recounted as only Big Daddy can, painting a vivid picture of his life at speed and the triumphs and tragedies that came along the way. Insightful, ironic, humorous, and touchingâ€”but all trueâ€”Big Daddyâ€™s remembrances are the next best thing to reliving the glory days of Americaâ€™s quickest and fastest motorsports through the eyes of an American institution.
