Flashback Friday on NHRA All Access: 1997 Winternationals
Throughout 2018, NHRA All Access subscribers again will get bonus content with the airing of vintage NHRA national events as part of our Flashback Friday series. This week: the 1997 Winternationals.
We go back into the NHRA archives one more time prior to the start of the 2018 Mello Yello Drag Racing season with the 1997 Winternationals. The race featured the Top Fuel debut -- and win -- by the “Wild Thing,” Gary Scelzi in Alan Johnson’s dragster. Funny Car featured arch rivals John Force and the late Al Hoffman while Pro Stock was Johnson versus Johnson, father against son with Warren taking on Kurt Johnson.
To see the entire race, you must be a subscriber of NHRA All Access. To watch or join, visit NHRAAllAccess.com.
