Product Description
"SA-CarTech CT953 Super Stock - Drag Racing The Family Sedan ""Win on Sunday, sell on Monday"" was the driving motivation behind the factory involvement in NHRA Super Stock drag racing in the 1960s and '70s. The 409 Chevys, 427 Fords, and Hemi powered MoPars were all fighting for the attention of the car buying public. Author Larry Davis experienced this period in drag racing history first hand as a racer himself who competed in the 1967 and 1969 NHRA Nationals at Indianapolis, Indiana. His book is a year-by-year account of the factory battles on drag strips all across America and it is packed with facts and photos that bring the entire decade to life once again."

 It just flat out takes you back! July 17, 2008
David Colbeck
A great book, well written on quality art paper with all the photos you need to take you back to the time when Dick Landy battled it out with 'The Grump' while Ronnie Sox warmed up the 4-speed prior to hole-shotting Dyno-Don!
The perfect coffee table book - BUY IT!

A Great Book for Fans of 1950's and 60's Drag Racing. July 10, 2006
Michael P. Mcsheehy (Fort Worth, TX United States)
I have really enjoyed Larry Davis's book on Super Stock Drag Racing. This 210 page,hardbound book is packed with easy reading, informative text and hundreds of period photographs. Mr. Davis's book covers the golden era (1955 thru 1968) of stock drag racing, involving both private and factory sponsored cars. There is an appendix and glossary at the back of the book,covering the drivers, cars,drag strips,race classes and rules. This book is a must have for fans of vintage drag racing. Equally recommended is Larry Davis's companion book, GASSER WARS.
Relive the Glory Days of Drag Racing May 28, 2004

If you loved drag racing during the 60's, particularly Super Stocks, then this book is for you. For Each year, it gives info on the cars (Chevy/Ford/Dodge/Plymouth/Pontiac) and who competed/won at the Major Drag Racing events. And it has lots of great pictures although I wish more were in color, most are just black and white. These were the Glory Years of Super Stock Drag Racing, intense competition and constant change.
