Show Notes
Our first drag racer! ….and what better person than Big Daddy himself. Don Garlits is affectionately known as the godfather of drag racing, having won 17 championships and over 100 national wins. Beginning his career in the dangerous world of front-engined dragsters, Don pioneered the rear engine, breaking the 200mph, 240, and 270mph barriers, and even at 86-years old is still tinkering in his pursuit to become the first electric drag racer over 200mph. Dinner was served at Eaton’s Beach Sandbar and Grill in Weirsdale, FL, with the music of Anna Volpe taking us out. Thanks to Continental Tire for all of their support, and Acura for providing a great car.
