Project 1320 is a bold effort to record the entire history of the sport of drag racing in serial documentary form, like Ken Burn’s Jazz or Baseball works. The work is being backed and supported by some of the greats in the annals of the sport including BangShifter Jon Lundberg, Dave McClelland, and hordes more. The project is in the beginning stages and they are certainly looking to raise more funds to do the work at the level of thoroughness and quality they expect to do it in.
In this video, Jon Lundberg, the legendary “Voice of Drag Racing,” introduces us to the project, lets us know why it is important and shows us some totally awesome vintage drag racing footage we’ve never seen before.
We believe that this is an important project as the foundation generation of drag racers are passing away at a rapid clip and we have little time to hear their stories and record them for the sake of history.
