This vintage drag racing video takes us to Texas in the 1970s. The race is being held at Hallsville Drag Strip, which is still under operation but now called Hallsville Dragway. As you’d expect, things are a little more modernized now than they were in the days when this video was taken. 

There’s something beyond cool about a bare bones strip and Hallsville certainly qualified for that status in this era. Initially we thought it was an eighth mile track but research has shown that it was and is a quarter-mile affair.
