The Driver Suit Blog-Throwback Thursday-Jeb Allen-1980

Jeb Allen burns out his 1980 English Leather at the 1980 Fallnationals Black, gold, orange, and white is a bit of a bold color scheme. That said, the design works very well. The stripes aren’t over done, the logos work well with the color schemes, and the car looks good as a whole. I like […]

By David G. Firestone She has 22 national event wins, 2 Pro Stock Championships, is a former junior dragster champion, and even has had a Disney Channel movie made about her life. She is the 35th woman to win an NHRA event, the first woman to win a Pro Stock race, and the first woman […]

The Driver Suit Blog-Throwback Thursday-Stan Shiroma-1977

Stan Shiroma wins the 1977 Fallnationals in Seattle in this Lidtke & Zeller dragster The stripes up the sides are a bit overdone, but they work with the color scheme. I do like the red background near where the driver sits. Is the split down the middle of LIDTKE supposed to be like that, or […]

The Driver Suit Blog-A Weekend At The Races Is A Weekend Well Spent!

By David G. Firestone An annual summer tradition of mine is to use all of my vacation time in July. Another annual tradition is to go to the NHRA Route 66 Nationals. I’m a drag racing fan, and I love to attend the Route 66 Nationals every year. It’s fun to go from Chicago to […]

The Driver Suit Blog-Throwback Thursday-Don Prudhomme-1972

Don Prudhomme’s 1972 Hot Wheels wedge gears up for a run The paint scheme itself is really good. The dark red with the white stripe design works very well, and looks great. The car itself is kind of odd. Did Hot Wheels design it? It looks like something that would be sold as a Hot […]
