One could argue that as soon as the second car was manufactured, a contest of speed ensued against the first. While the roots of modern drag racing go back to the dry lakes of California in the 1930s, drag racing became a sanctioned affair in the early 1950s with the forming of the National Hot Rod Association. In the 60 years that have followed the first NHRA sanctioned race in 1953, the changes in technology have been astounding, as well as the categories and classes in which racers have competed. And of all of the eras, the golden era of the late 1950s through the early 1970s is the clear fan favorite. Drag Racing's Quarter-Mile Warriors: Then & Now takes a unique look at the most memorable, interesting, and successful cars from this golden age of drag racing. Chronicled are Diggers and Rail dragsters, Funny Cars, wild Altereds, door slammers including Super and Junior Stock cars, early 1970s Pro Stock cars and more. Vintage and modern photography in a unique "then and now" format cover the cars as they first competed, through their evolution (or inactivity) over the years, and how they look today. Cars driven by legends such as Mickey Thompson, Tommy Ivo, Dick Landy, Grumpy Jenkins, Sox & Martin, Don Nicholson, Bob Glidden, and more are featured in evolutionary detail. Never before has a book covered the cars from the golden age of drag racing and combined it with a modern look at where the cars are today. From full restorations to cars still competing in nostalgia events, from museum pieces to those collecting dust in a dark corner waiting for another day in the sun, Drag Racing's Quarter-Mile Warriors: Then & Now gives you a unique look at how these cars have fared over time. No drag racing library is complete without it. Review: Another top-shelf book from Doug Boyce 8Car - A sample from a wide swath of drag cars of yesteryear, Doug Boyce has once again hit this one out of the park! Beautiful photography, with well-versed and researched information regarding each vehicle featured within the volume(as far as humanly possible). Break out that bank card, hit the "buy" button.....you won't regret it! Review: Great coverage of the cars we love - Very nice book on a favorite subject of mine. Great quality photos and stories of a wide variety of these awesome early and later (Grump's '74 Vega) cars that everyone knows and many unheard of. That is what makes this book so great. It's always fun to add to the mental museum some new vehicles to drool over ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #3,226,919 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,848 in Motor Sports (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 79 Reviews | ## Images ![Drag Racing's Quarter-Mile Warriors: Then & Now - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PCgvg17kL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another top-shelf book from Doug Boyce 8Car *by A***R on November 28, 2018* A sample from a wide swath of drag cars of yesteryear, Doug Boyce has once again hit this one out of the park!

I agree with everything Todd said. We saw many of the P.S. cars back in the day. It was very interesting to see the survival and restoration of so many drag cars. Great text, great photos, loved the book. Looking forward to more from Doug. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/3885149-drag-racings-quarter-mile-warriors-then-and-now](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/3885149-drag-racings-quarter-mile-warriors-then-and-now) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
