The IHRA sanctioned their first and last drag race in Charlotte
during the 1974. While this video, originally broadcast on Speedvision,
which is now Speed TV, showed good footage from the event, the horrific
deaths of three people on Saturday of the event was not mentioned. The
event was the first eighth-mile sanctioned national event on record and
was contested on the pit road at what is now Lowe's Motor Speedway.

history and as extensive a library of footage as any sport.

and tradition-rich past as it debuts the first in a series of 15 DVDs

This video was shot at an IHRA points race held at Brainerd Optimist
Drag Strip in North Georgia, just South of Chattanooga, Tennessee. A
building was blocking the view down track but there's some good
starting line footage with some excellent sound. This should get your
heart pumping. a A lot of the old IHRA runners such as Dennis Mitchell,
Bill Pucket, Tim Freeman and Wayne Allison are just a few of the names
you'll see.
