American Graffiti

      Many years ago, a movie was released that came very close to portraying my life style at that time. The movie was “ American Graffiti “ , and it is something that I still relate to, and refer to often. The type of street racing that movie portrayed is something I participated in for over 40 years.  Eventually, I wrote a book about it.   Follow this link to find my book: Grab Some Gears

     Many other movies have been about street racing, such as the “Fast and Furious“ series. Most of them are filled with over-the-top craziness.  Most of them are not as realistic to that real world activity. I referred to it often as “ the old-style street racing “.  I still love that movie to this day.
