Back then, cars were more than just vehicles that took a person from A to B.

Hot Rods began driving the streets of Southern California as early as 1930. These cars were actually roadsters modified by grease monkeys who fell in love with excessive amounts of horsepower and torque. They raced against each other to find out who had the fastest car in town. Hence, Drag Racing was born.

It triggered a revolution and catapulted the American heritage of speed.

Year after year, engines were developed to set new standards of speed. The next half-century saw some of the most powerful American engines in history. Drag Racing paved the way for muscle cars, vintage cars, and classic cars.

While the V8 days of America are over, there is still a place for these iconic vehicles in our minds and our hearts.
