  • Gotta luv Don and the swamp rat-legends !!!!!!

  • @slugg0matic lol, I used to help Don in his pit at Alamo Dragway and also eat with him and his family at Don Pedro's on military drive, small world huh! Lol

  • The man is just great... that's al.

  • I watched Big Daddy many times at Alamo Dragway in SA. Tx and then sat at a table next to him and his crew at Don Pedro's at 1AM for Mexican food, a favorite place back in the 70's for racers to eat good food after the drags.

    During the tune up he used to hold his hand about 3 Ft above each pipe, feeling the power of each cylinder as they cracked the throttle. No computer BS. Just raw talent.

    It makes no difference who holds the current record, Don Garlits is still the man.

  • Listen close when he stabs the throttle. When the blower whirrs down. Garlits engines sound like no others. Motor sounds crisp.

  • I could watch "Big" tinkering with a fueler all day.
