It was about the rivalry and partnership of Tom "The Mongoose" McEwen and Don "The Snake" Prudhomme. Showed a lot of history of drag racing from about 1963 until the nationals in 1978. A lot of the safety innovations were noted in the movie. The Garlits crash was mentioned. I spent a lot of Saturday nights at Beeline Dragway on Beeline Highway a little north of Mesa Arizona watching races and walking the pits. Good times :)
