"Drag Racing 101 by Ike Heckler
Jr is the best how to book about drag racing I have read in years. It included
everything from being a beginning racer, to getting sponsors and traveling. As a
Professional sportsman racer and host of Speed Scene Live TV I spend a lot of
time on the road racing and I feel this book nailed it!"

I always
wanted to drag race ever since I went to US 30 Drag strip in Indiana when I was
a very young. This book helped me step by step and was right on for my drag
racing experience. It took all the mystery out of drag racing. Great for the
beginner. If drag racing is something you always wanted to try this is the book
that will tell you just like it is and will help you understand what to expect
when you get to the track. I enjoyed this book very much and it has enhanced the
very pleasurable time I had at route 66 drag way. It is just as titled Drag
Racing 101.
