Fun fact, in 1963, 1964 and 1967 it was the most popular drag strip in america because it was in the middle of a corn field near a small town in the middle of nowhere of wisconsin yet not too far a drive from milwaukee or chicago.

Many fond memories of the races at Union Grove. The Olympics of drag racing!
Great video, thanks for not including any music
I've got one of these. Injected small block. Runs high 7's low 8's. Luv it.
The sound made me shiver
Very noble of a driver to post a losing effort! Still way cool to watch & ride along!
Win or lose in this vid...who cares? It's just plain badass cool!!!!
Umm people care, that's the only reason they built the car, to win.
Yani p
Yeah especially since this guy stole my bicycle tyres
Maybe back in the 60's but now it's about having fun.
must admit,,,,,,it would be damned fun.
as a 10 year old I was a part of the pit crew for the mano brothers gas dragster, great times and memories,,,

My brother crewed for a crew in the UK around the same age. Cool shit.

Hoooollly hell batman. Just watching that got my heart going. Love to make a pass in one of those old school death traps before I die!
Finally caught him after the 'chutes came out.
Nice to see these 'old school' machines put it down.
Great video , thanks for not including any music . 🖒🖒🖒
Legend has it, the dude in the brown shirt is still chasing the car.
this entire video is 10 seconds of pure adrenaline rush..worth the wait.

I LIVE IN UNION GROVE!!!
THIS IS THE OLDEST CONTINUSLY RUN DRAG STRIP IN THE US.
Cool, what year was it built?
Fun fact, in 1963, 1964 and 1967 it was the most popular drag strip in america because it was in the middle of a corn field near a small town in the middle of nowhere of wisconsin yet not too far a drive from milwaukee or chicago.
Nice!
Those steering is cute!... I'm gonna die!
Did you have some chips with the sandwich you ate at the starting line? Seriously, this was a cool race!
Watch the good year name on the tires and it starts to look like it says Krieger
It says hoosier. My fathers friend has that brand on his '70 drag-Mach1 mustang
Oh, ok, I thought it said good year because of the yellow lettering
Amazing view. Love the turned dash.
Sooo technically my truck is a dragster because it needs started fluid too, right?
How many horses it got
And are you on slicks?
Remains All of em, I mean worn out mud graps are basically slicks
@@maxbloom218 i mean drag slicks
@@maxbloom218 ppppp
Sitting on the rear end crazy.
Man do I miss piloting one of those!!
Every drag video I’ve watched basically starts 2 mins jn
Why are the tyres next to the drivers seat?
0:08 what is that hes pouring there?
Starter fluid. Helps get it started
Why is the engine not blown like the orher dragsters/pullers
Different classes.
This vid has 1.1m views all his other vids at least have 1k views!
He didn’t loose his opponent was dnf
Augustus Cantu he lost his opponent made it to the other end and didn’t red light AND didn’t cross he won stupid
John Hardin yeah I said opponent. Idiot if his opponent red lighted, that means the race was DNF the race was flagged?. And the other driver won.
zdx
That's when drag racing was fun...Frank
Why the tires reduces size during acceleration?
Upon acceleration they grow taller hence the width shrinks till deacceleration
Nice straight run! Sounds good
Front engined...back when men were men.. old school.
Back when Tanning was no problem.
stupid question but what’s the guy in the beginning doing?
He is pouring nitro methane directly into to the air intake of the engine to help it Start. Those engines have such enormous fuel injectors that they dont start very Well because they are made for high rpms and high Power output
Kayveelee ahh thanks
Right lane red lighted?
Yeehaa that was fantastic!!!!!
I love this .. but didn’t he just pull out front of the right lane guy??
Looks like 8.7 or so..makes me want to build one!
Good times right there!
Im questioned on why such a small wheel?
For pickup maybe?
ThE JoKeR because I’m drag racing there is no turning so a small wheel requires more movement to make a turn than a bigger steering wheel
@@ME-tc8fw ok.
I like it the best video on youtube
The track is full of pain and suffering, whoever hasn't raced has not been lame.
Excellent. Merci
Not while engines cold!!

So much respect for the Slingshot drivers. Your balls sitting on the pumpkin and if it goes boom....um ya
Rear ends rarely failed. The biggest danger was clutch explosions. Just ask Don Garlits.

Looked like left lane win . It went on green , didn't see what the other side of tree was displaying. Wasn't green
I think I would have had a word or two for the starter!
That is one scary view but so cool
Fell asleep at the light

Il y a des Français ?
The line up guy isn't wearing hot pants and a bikini top?
Valves and pistons...moving up and down... turning the crank and spinning the tyres.

A small block Chevy on nitro sounds just as awesome as a blown big block on nitro does
I came here because of Rodd rogers
Damn I wish he was my bartender 😂
Ooops I was 7 years late
Is that mayonnaise??
It starts at 2:30 thank me later
is anyone gonna talk about how ballsy it is to spray fuel straight into the intakes on an open header drag racing engine?
Yes
THEアメリカンって感じ🇺🇸
late
To say the least.
Auauau
Kind of seems like if they both jumped at the same time they would’ve got there at almost the same time. Other guy just beat him to the gas.
Hope you wearing a mask
Than man with the white hair looked so suspicious
The other dude is faster on take off
Are those bicicle wheels lol

Wow that dude is making a sandwich on the line
Hole shot. Fun Video.
Woulda been an even race if the dragster wasn't making a PB&J on the line.
Not really a great RT at the tree.
5 second reaction time.
