Burnell Russell only wanted to understand better what his sons felt from a Top Fuel car.
Saturday, September 7, 2019, Burnell not only felt what his son, the late Darrell Russell, did when he was a passenger on a pass down the drag strip but also made a bit of United States drag racing history in the process.
Burnell, 79, thanks to the Larry Dixon two-seat Top Fuel dragster became the quickest nitro passenger in history at US 131 Motorsports Park in Martin, Mich.
