I'll second Dave's idea...a history of drag racing!!! That would be a great book, maybe a coffee table book with lots of photos!

By the way, did you ever race at Balboa in Eugene, Oregon? Back in the '60s I used to cut through the fields between our house and the track, pit passes were cheap and the nitro smelled wonderful.

Thanks for posting these great shots!
