Wally Parks was the Driving Fource Behind NHRA

 

The name Wally Parks is synonymous with drag racing, and there is little question that his vision and direction will guide the sport for many years to come. He was a man that lived a lot of life in his 94 years on this earth, traveling a road from teenage hot rodder to record-breaking driver and unstoppable and unflappable champion of the sport of hot rodding.

It was Parks' vision, goals and unconditional commitment to the need for speed and side-by-side racing in a safer, more controlled environment that created what is today the world's largest motorsports governing body.

The word around the show is that business is brisk for the vendors, except for those who had anticipated a booming business selling sweatshirts and warm jackets.
