Any drag racing video that features the dulcet tones of Steve Evans is automatically awesome in our book. If you combined the pipes of Evans and a fun subject like the evolution of funny cars you have pure gold. This video is proof of that as Evans walks the audience through the history of funny cars from the beginning.
Evans was there and lived that period of evolution at the strips he managed back in the day. These weren’t hole in the wall tracks either. Evans was in charge of places like Lions Dragway, Irwindale, and others during his stint in that part of the business.
Hit the video below for some awesome footage of floppers running quick and blowing up.
