[QUOTE="Uncle Meat, post: 16459158, member: 5089"] This is a great video which covers the 1980 Pro Stock NHRA championship. Lots of great classic footage from Diamond P Motorsports with interviews and the stories behind the season. I got to spend some time with Bob Glidden back in the mid 80's when he showed up at a little drag strip in Louisiana to do some "testing". This track was not well known and not on the NHRA circuit. I had gone there to watch some local drag racing and here comes this big truck with Glidden & his car. Funny thing was he had pretty much no crew with him. He and one other guy were doing everything. I was able to talk to Bob throughout the day as he made multiple passes trying different tuning and suspension setups. He was the nicest pro NHRA guy I have ever met. Nothing like Don Prudhomme who was a total dick when I met him at the Cajun Nationals. Enjoy some classic Ford Fairmont action from '80. U.M. [MEDIA=youtube]4wzWVDb9L4g[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
