Drag Racing 1965

In 1964 and 1965 the US National Hot Rod Association in conjunction with the British Drag Racing Association organised an exhibition tour of Britain which in 1965 included a drag race meeting on the runway of RAF Woodvale near Southport. This is a photograph that I took that day of one of the US drivers preparing for a run.

I don't recall having a programme at the event, but this is apparently Gary Casady in his Ansen Forgings Chevy powered 400 Junior Fueler.
