HA!

Any FOOTAGE is good. Its History...

Just look how far we've come? It will be 15 years since the first Battle was run at LACR next year. I know Frank remembers it well...

We have come a long way and we still have a long way to go torwards resepectiblity....

I'm glad this culture and this form of the sport of drag racing isn't a flash in the pan. It has been durable, fun and exciting the whole time.

Its matured and grown. Not without any pains of course and we still have the "Street Racing" bugaboo to deal with, but we'll get beyond that soon.

I was lucky to come across that Wheels TV show and had to share.. Im sure there's more footage out there on the WWW...
