  • Dandy Dick Landy!!!!! So cool.

  • @topfueldragster ur the fag

  • Yes....RIP Dick Landy...for sure. Man, what an absolute joy to hear his mean old hemi under hard launches. Those hemis always had such a brutally different sound to them compared to either the big block Chevys or Fords.

    And to see those "slingshot" rails....whew! Guess I'm getting old. I can remember at the dusty old Tucson Dragway in the mid 60's the rails being push started at the finish line, then criss-crossing into their staging lanes at the starting line. Then being started by a flag!!

  • I hope DP will release all of their old footage on DVD. This was great! Loved seeing Dandy Dick again (RIP). He did some work for me in the early 90's and I got the shop tour from his son Robert, and his brother and engine man, Mike helped me out with my build. Dick was very friendly, and the engine ran strong. Man, he was brutal on the line! He would redline that hemi and side-step the clutch and either launch like a rocket or blow the driveshaft out on the track, which I saw several times.

  • e muito fantasticoooooooooo

  • Dick Landy and Mopar Hemi..........Amazing

  • Ok, just throwing this out there but did you notice how the video said that the sport was only about 20 years old?? That means the video was made in the late 70's that's pretty good for back then.

  • Notice the cigar, you can do that any more

  • If you are Diamond P post the years of footage you have from late 70's and early 80's

  • DIAMONDPVIDEO i dont know who you are, or where you came from, but i know my life is a happier one since i discovered a lot of your superb rare footage...thanx again for posting such incredibly good stuff!

  • great documentary!! Sad some of the drivers as well as so many tracks have left us!

    as a sad note,BTW,some of the principals that are featured in this video-including Dick Landy,Joe Pisano Sr. and others-aren't any longer among us,but their contributions to the sport wiil always be remembered and acknowledged
