Everyone around here knows that NHRA Pro Stock is one of my favorite classes. Sure it has changed a bunch over the last decade or so, but it is still great drag racing. I have always loved NHRA Pro Stock and as a kid that was all I wanted to grow up to drive. So when I had enough money as an adult, I went to Roy Hill’s Drag Racing School and got my Pro Stock license. That was nearly 25 years ago. I’ve been fortunate to drive some pretty rad stuff since, but letting go of the clutch pedal in a door car with a 500 cubic inch screamer and then rowing gears down the track is truly something special.
But that isn’t always how it was, or how it is now. There have been many changes as this class has grown over the decades, and in this video from NHRA you’ll see how it came to be and specifically what historic cars paved the way to the Pro Stock we know and love.
