For those of us who have been in the performance car hobby for many years now, a lot of things have changed, and some things have changed very much. A subject I’m very familiar with, is the way the style of “street racing” has completely changed in the last 60 years.
Back when I first discovered the activity, in my teenage years of the mid-1960’s, it was a lot different than the way it was during my last experiences in the early 2000’s. It can be compared to the scenes of a couple different popular movies that most people may be familiar with. Starting out with the classic movie “American Graffiti” , and the type of down town street scenes that film portrayed. Then compare that to the outrageous craziness of the more recent “Fast and Furious” movie series.
That is the reason, I describe the racing in my book as “the old style street racing”. Those who may be interested can find my book at: Grab Some Gears
