Dragsters and Cars - car maintenance PSA - Don Garlits "Big Daddy" 1960's nhra drag race

Genre: public service announcement

Description: Can anybody give me a year for the Dodge that's in this? Voice-over: Don Garlits is a professional driver. He specializes in winning drag races like the National Hot Rod Association championship at Indianapolis. Don tells how he does it. Don Garlits: To win a drag race, a car has to be in top condition. After every race I take my engine apart. Fuel lines are checked for leaks - the steering mechanism is inspected and I go over every inch of the car to be sure it's safe and ready for the next race. You know passenger cars today are engineered safer than ever. But it's your job to be sure your car stays safe. As the miles pile up they take their toll. That's why I'm as careful with my own car as with a dragster. Be sure you have your car checked by a qualified mechanic at regular intervals. Lights, steering, brakes, tires, mufflers. And even an engine tune-up. If you want to be a winning driver, take care of your car and your car will take care of you. From a 16mm print ffn016-20 nhra
