Video I put together today from our VHS library of the Pro Round Finals of the 1993 NHRA Winternationals, including horrific crash by Kenny Bernstein in the final round. The cars were slower back then, but the crowds were incredible!
Our thanks to NHRA, TNN & Diamond P Sports!

About Roger
Driver of our '57 Chev from 1972-2019, Vietnam veteran (A Troop, 3/17th Air Cavalry Scout helicopter Line Chief and later Cobra Periodic Inspection team leader), retired ASE rated automotive mechanic. Roger became involved in drag racing during his high school days and after his stint in the Army ran E & F/MP [Modified Production] here in Division 6 before switching to bracket racing when the '57 became obsolete for class racing. He often raced at Puyallup, Kent-Pacific Raceways, Bremerton, Portland & the original Mission, B.C. track.
I’m rather dismayed at the lack of video viewers on this event. Clearly the modern racer has little appreciation for our past. Therefore I will no longer devote any of my time in the future to such historic events.
