When dragracing came to Europe in 1964

Wheels magazine has an article in the latest issue about when Wally Parks brought the U.S. Drag Racing Team to Europe in 1964. These guys are named: Dave Strickler, Tony Nancy, Dante Duce, K.S.Pitman, Ronnie Sox, George Montgomery, Don Garlits, Tommy Ivo. They made a huge impact on the crowd in England and speeded up things. Two years later Santa Pod was opened.
