DOT approved slicks are ok.

Some great old video footage has come to light and I will be including this in the archive section of this site, although not an actual drag race here is some historic footage of a Chevy Impala jumping 200 feet at the track!
There is more old footage including the Ashburton Flying mile, Wild Bill Shrewsbury, Truck Drags LA Hooker, Phoenix and plenty of Drag racing.
