Jets, wheel standers, rockets, and all the other crowd-pleasers known as exhibition race cars are featured in this book.

Beginning with the Green Monster - the first exhibition car exceeding 200 mph everywhere it ran - Walt Arfons debuted the first jet-powered dragster which became the desire of every fan and promoter throughout the country. At virtually the same instant, Tom Ivo had Kent Fuller build a four-engine dragster and although it was too heavy to be competitive, the tire-smoke show became arguably the most famous exhibition car in history.

You will see Bill “Maverick” Golden and the Little Red Wagon, “Wild Bill” Shrewsberry's Hurst Hemi Under Glass, LA Dart, and Knott's Berry Wagon, Chuck Poole and his Chuckwagon, Doug Rose and The Green Mamba, plus many more.

These are the vehicles that thrilled millions of spectators in their heyday. Relive that excitement.
