National Nostalgia Pro Stock Association Drag Racing T Shirts

June 28, 2020 By Dave Leave a Comment

The all new National Nostalgia Pro Stock Association drag racing t shirts are here. Quarter Mile Addiction is proudly supporting the organisation. All proceeds go to organising and running up coming events. Including funding cash prizes for drag racers on the day.

About the National Nostalgia Pro Stock Association

National Nostalgia Pro Stock Association T ShirtThe National Nostalgia Pro Stock Association was founded in 1994 by Jeff Johnson and Dominic Durinzi. At around that time, Dominic was drag racing an original Sox & Martin Hemi Colt, with his racing partner Dave Heitz.

Jeff had not long sold a Pro Stock Dodge Challenger that was originally raced by Billy Stepp back in the day. Jeff was also in the process of restoring and documenting the forgotten ‘wire car’, once campaigned by Don Carlton.

At this time, fortuitous friendships were formed with past and present Pro Stock participants. The whereabouts of a large majority of original Pro Stock cars were coming to light. The NNPSA resulted in an effort to bring them all together.

National Trail Raceway in Columbus, Ohio, quickly became their home base. As a result, the track hosted many events for Pro Stock drag racing pioneers. During the mid nineties, the original cars fell into one of two categories at the time. Original cars that were updated to meet current safety standards for bracket racing, or super categories. Or cars that remained mostly original, therefore couldn’t make it down the track due to modern tech inspection standards.

The NNPSA has had a role in influencing several original cars to not only be restored cosmetically, but also, are back to their original and often much greater performance levels.

Nostalgia Drag Racing Classes Today

NNPSA drag racing t shirtYou probably already know by now that nostalgia drag racing classes are absolutely huge today. We’ve covered a few classes in other posts in this blog. See this post here for further reading and drag racing history https://quartermileaddiction.com/

Jeff played a significant role in bringing Mopar Nostalgia Super Stock drag racing to the forefront in the nineties, and many new cars are still being built to this day. This has resulted in later model big tire Pro Stockers. A large majority of fully restored and documented cars have since greatly increased in value. Understandably to the point where it’s too much of a risk to race the cars at full potential.

This has paved the way for tribute cars or period correct cars to be built and raced. The NNPSA has refined their rules to encourage new builds. They have also secured many facilities across the nation enthusiasts, fans and racers can come together to relive the glory days of Pro Stock.

In 2018 Ron Kirkpatrick is now leading the way. Along with Mark Pappas and Mike Ruth, the guys have expanded the NNPSA into a world class organisation.

Join the National Nostalgia Pro Stock Association here on facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/122637731229951/
You don’t have to own a car to join. All fans and newcomers are welcome.

You’ll find many, many, cool photo’s of these cars from back in the day. You’ll even get to see photos of new cars being built today as well.

Why Drag Racing?

As is further explained in a NewWire article found here about our store https://newswire.net/newsroom/pr/00101091-http-quartermileaddiction-com.html drag racing has a long and rich history across the United States. Many of our customers would no doubt recall the iconic drag racing commercials and newspaper advertisements of the 1960s.

We figured, what better way to bring these enduring memories back to life than through merchandise, now our customers can wear and own their own little memento of their own past of childhood, allowing them to find those happy memories at any time.

The affordable, yet high-quality nature of our merchandise allows our products to be accessible to those who still cherish these memories, as we do, without breaking the bank.

As explained in PBS’ History Detectives article on the subject of Drag Racing in the US, it is explained that Drag Racing evolved “into one of the most popular sports in America” from its humble beginnings. We hope to champion these ideals through our merchandise, we will not let the original spirit of drag racing die out or become forgotten.

See the History Detectives article here for refernce https://www.pbs.org/opb/historydetectives/feature/drag-racing/

What Is Our Inspiration?

Classic Drag Racing AdvertisingMany of our customers are sure to remember the vintage drag racing TV adverts and radio commercials, brought to us by Jan Gabriel, previously known for being of “Sunday Sunday Sunday” advertising fame. While others may remember the unforgettable drag racing ads announcing drag racing meetings at popular strips.

These strips would often include the likes of the US York 30 Dray Way, Lion’s Drag Way, and Smokers at Bakersfield, amongst many others from all over the country. All of these pieces of media are as much our own inspiration, in the designing and production of our products, as they are to our customers.

You can find many more classic newspaper ads in this great article here https://bangshift.com/general-news/videos/1960s-drag-strip-radio-ads-from-indianas-chandler-raceway-park/

This is what makes it even more essential to us that we ensure the highest levels of quality in our products at all times, to pay tribute to these essential parts of so many of our childhoods formative years. These years have become a widely forgotten period, being overshadowed by more modern incarnations of the sport.

It is important that we do not forget the roots and origins of this incredible and highly influential sport in American history. We keep this at the heart of our mission at all times, making sure never to lose sight of what inspired us to begin producing and selling our merchandise to being with.

Cool Hot Rod Shirts 1938 Willys Pickup Gasser

June 21, 2020 By Dave 5 Comments

Here at Quarter Mile Addiction, we have just released our latest cool hot rod t shirts. A 1938 Willys hot rod Gasser. Completly stuffed with a blown and injected 392 Hemi. We’re sure this period looking 50s hot rod Car Toon will get plenty of Willys Love from many.

While there may be a few 1940/41 Willys coupe t shirts available on the market. We’ll never get tired of them. With this one we’ve decided to go with something a little different.

[read more]

Willys Overland Motor Co – Cool Hot Rod Shirts

Cool hot rod shirts 1938 Willys pickup GasserThe Willys Americar manufacturer from the 1930’s and 40s is still one of the most popular car/truck brands in the world. Still to this day and beyond. The cars, coupes and pickups were capmpaigned in many different classes of drag racing throughout the 50s and 60s era of drag racing.

The popular Gasser class really appealed to both the drag racer and drag racing fans. With a straight axle/leaf spring front suspension. This resulted in the nose sitting high in the air. Often the engine would sit high between the fenders as well to aid with weight transfer for maximim traction.

The great thing about these early hot rods was, the fact that you could often find just about any v8 configuration installed between the fender rails. Wether it be a big gas or methonal burning super charger. Early mechanical fuel injection stacks, or carburettors in just about any form you can think of. From single 2 barrel carbs. Single four carbs. 8 single carbs. Dual quad carbs and more. It was quite the spectacle.

Willys hot rod drag carsThe there was just about every engine of choice available. The early 50s saw many Willys hot rods fitted with Ford flat head engines. Early Cadillac engines were a popular choice too. The 60s saw the later model (for the time) v8’s like the popular 392 Hemi engine as seen in this design.

With a big alcohol/nitro pumping supercharger. Flames would shoot right out of the pipes. Seen much clearer at night. This made for a really wild ride. It makes for cool hot rod shirts too!

Willys Gasser History

Although nitro/methanol drag raicng was quite popular with the crowds and drag racers, especially with the Willys. The Gasser class meant the cars were running on gasoline. This made for a much more affordable drag racing class to get invoved or race in.

This also meant there was a possibilty that the cars could litterally drive on the street. Pull into a gas station and fill up on the way to the drag strip. This wasn’t as common as you might think. Most cars were towed to the drag strip with an open trailer.

Today in 2020 the hot rod Gasser drag racing class is more popular now than ever before. There are more Gasser cars being built now, raced and driven, than there were originally back in the day. It really is racing on a budget. You don’t need paint to go fast either.

Check out the video here. This is just one small example of what’s being built and the scale of cars being purchased.

Willys Street Rods and Gassers

With the popularity of Willys cars today, be it a street legal hot rod, Gasser or dedicated drag car. There are now a handful of companies that make Willys bodies, chassis and complete tun key cars. You can find a few places listed below if you might be in the market for a future project.

  • Hillside Street Rods as shown in the video above. You’ll find their Facebook page on their website too http://hillsidestreetrods.com
  • Scotts Rods https://www.scottrodscustom.com/body-packages/street-rod-packages/1941-willys-coupe/
  • Fast Times Rods https://www.fasttimesrods.com/product-galleries/1940-1941-willys/

Well worth a look or a quick browse. There are many more aftermarket manufactureres. Which is quite a surprise given how many Willys were actually built. Here’s the best source I could find to give you a general idea of each model Willys sold.
https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/how-many-willys-did-they-make.954523/

1938 Willys Pickup Gasser

There weren’t a lot of 38 Willys pickups built either. Most Willys Gassers were either 1040-41 models or the earlier 1933 models. That’s not to say no 38 Gassers exist. This is why I chose to feature this one,as it’s a little different than every other Willys hot rod drag car.

You can view the shirt here at this link https://www.quarter-mile-addiction.com/hot-rod-gasser-willys-pickup

  1. Sizes include XS to 3XL
  2. Shirts come in black. If you’d like a different shirt color, please leave a comment below
  3. There are free shipping options available
  4. I’ll be adding more products with the design if there’s enough interest. Let me know in the comments what you would like

Cool T Shirts For Men Nostalgia Drag Racing Apparel

June 14, 2020 By Dave Leave a Comment

Quarter Mile Addiction LogoCool t shirts for men, Nostalgia drag racing apparel by Quarter Mile Addiction. Featuring drag racing muscle cars and hot rods form the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s printed on t shirts.

From altered wheel base cars to top fuel dragsters, including hot rod gassers to super stock drag cars. A time when the factory drag racing wars first started, which was in the very early 60’s. Much like it is today with retro Mustangs, Camaros and Dodge Challengers.

The factory horse power and drag racing wars rages on, with each manufacturer upping the horse power ante. Seemingly with every new model released. Today though, the horse power made with the newer cars are more than twice what the cars of the ‘heyday’ made, when bought off the show room floor.

The cars are built to handle the big power, naturally. Even with modern creature comforts of snug leather interior, air conditioning, cruise control, heater, state of the art sound systems. None of which the old cars were built with accept perhaps for a heater and an 8 track radio.

The cars from the early drag racing era were all out street brawlers. They required a drive seat of your pants driving style. Sure, they’d pin you to the back of the seat upon hard acceleration. But when it came time to go around corners, or even to simply stop at a stop sign, this required some skill.

Some would say that was all part of the fun. I’d have to agree.

Cool t shirts for menThe first of the cool t shirts for men that we are going to show case today, is the 427 Factory Modified Match Race, Heads Up Action t shirt.

This fantastic design is based on an old advertising poster. Something like this may have been used to announce the weekends coming event at a drag strip near you. In this case a drag strip in Pennsylvania. We can think of at least two famous tracks in the great state, from back in the day. We’re sure you can too.

Cool T Shirts For Boys & Kids

Next up is a cool t shirt for boys. Well for any kid really, boy or girl. This would be a great way to ‘start em young’. The Legends of 1968 t shirt celebrates 50 years of 5 of the most famous muscle cars to ever come out of Detroit. If you’re a Mopar fan we’re sure you’ll agree.

This is the first of our Legends series. The shirt not only comes in all sizes for kids. Also there are many sizes and styles for men and women too.

  • From premium fit t shirts
  • Short and long sleeve.
  • Hoodies
  • Tank tops
  • Sleeveless tees
  • Mugs
  • And many more items can be found at the online store front.

Cool t shirts for boys & kidsTo check out the online store front go here https://www.quarter-mile-addiction.com/stores/quartermileaddiction. There are free shipping options available too.

This would still be a great shirt to wear to any up coming drag racing or muscle car event, all year round.

Cool T Shirts For Women

As mentioned above we have cool t shirts for women too. No matter what your style preference is, or your choice of muscle car brand might be. We’ve got you covered.This classic vintage style design is based around another infamous drag strip. Can you guess as to which one it is?

If you guessed Lions drag strip you’d be correct. This is a tribute to the last ever event held at the strip in 1972. The track was right next to Long Beach, in California. A popular slogan used to advertise the events held there was ‘Drive the highways. . . Race at Lions’.

Cool t shirts for womenThe last ever event held at the track included Top Fuel, Funny Car and Pro Stock classes. The track had become well known for Grudge and Match Race meetings in the early years. As well as Super Stock and Factory Experimental classes, (A/FX) too.With a bit of Ford vs Mopar rivalry. We’ll let you decide on which one takes the chequered flag. Perhaps a best of three heads up drag race?

Some say Lions drag strip was the Woodstock of drag racing events. Much like the the massive event help at York US 30 Drag way, in York PA. There’s also a tribute to that event held in 1965 too. It’s called the Woodstock of drag racing 1965.

Nostalgia Drag Racing Grand Slam

Nostalgia Drag Racing Grand SlamHere’s a tribute to Pro Stocks first grand slam. The Chevy Vega was the first car to achieve the status by winning all 8 NHRA national events in 1972. There seems to be a pattern here for 1972. Did drag racing itself reach it’s height for innovation and excitement?

The Pro Stock driver to take the Vega to the winners circle in all 8 events, was none other than a famous drag racer by the name of Grumpy Jenkins. He went on to take home over 1.2 million dollars over the next 5 years within the NHRA Pro Stock drag racing class.

This was achieved with a Chevrolet small block of just 331 cubic inches. This is a tribute to the little subcompact, that won the hearts of many. Known as the Chevy Vega. Hardcore enthusiasts would also know the car by the code ‘XP-887’.

Vintage Nitro Fuel Funny Car Drag Racing

The last feature for the day is a nostalgia Chevrolet Camaro Funny Car. With a big roots type Vintage Nitro Fuel Funny Car Drag Racingsupercharger. Often the fuel consisted of a nitro-methane and methanol blend. These cars ere a progression from the altered wheel base cars of the mid 60’s.

The term ‘funny car’ came from the spectators. As quite simply, the cars ‘looked funny’. This was often heard from kids as they asked their parents, ‘why does that car look funny?’.

The terms or sayings ‘It’s all about the speed, front brakes only slow you down, and, ‘race cars don’t have radiators’ were often used to describe the funny car drag racing class back in the day too.

Factory Hot Rods Wheels Up Action

This is the name of our first ever Mopar t shirt design. Featuring two factory light weight 1964 hemi cars, we’re sure you’ll love. Printed on a black premium t shirt, also available in dark navy.

With the slogan or often heard radio ad Sunday, Sunday, Sunday. Introducing the big feature match race for the number one spot in the nation. This was usually a match race between well known local racers and an out of town big name guy.

Hemi t shirts for sale

The event was designed to draw in the crowds, as they often did. Jam packed. With a big cash prize for a winner take all best of 3. Thursday nights were often a big night for heads up or match racing too.

Then many racers would race on a Friday night, and then drive 100’s and sometimes 1000’s of miles, to a factory sponsered event held on the Saturday. Same again on Sunday, then home again late Sunday night or early Monday morning.

This was how many racers made an income. Click on the image for more information and free shipping options, or visit the store front at this link https://www.quarter-mile-addiction.com/stores/quartermileaddiction

50 Years of Chrysler’s R0/W0 Factory Hemi Cars

R0/W0 1967 factory hemi cars Next up is pair of factory street legal race cars. The 1967 hemi Dodge and Plymouth cars were known by the R0 (Plymouth) and W0 (Dodge) vin tag. Only 55 of each were said to have been made.

They were a little heavier than the factory race cars from previous years. Probably due to the streetable nature of the cars, as they could be registered and driven legally on the street. The cars were largely underrated by racers in the early years due to the extra weight they seemed to have.

Many say that there were more Dodge Coronet and Plymouth Belvedere factory street hemi cars sold in 1967, than any other model year of the 426 hemi production. Perhaps the cars were far more popular with the general public.

After all there was such a massive demand for a street legal hemi car since the hemi engines inception in late 1963/64. Designed purely to win the 19464 NASCAR Daytona 500. And win it did!

1968 Hemi Super Stock SS/AA

Our next hemi t shirt for sale is none other than a pair of 1968 SS/AA cars. An L023 Hemi Dart and a B029 Hemi Barracuda. These cars were built to win IHRA and NHRA super stock drag racing events.

1968 hemi super stock drag cars designThey were by no means street legal although the odd one or two have been known to slip throughthe cracks and somehow were registered to drive on the street. Around 70 of each are thought to have been built.

Many of these cars were acid dipped, an old air craft trick to lighten or thin out the metal/body panels. Fitted with special light weight glass, stripped of any factory sound deadening material, interior trim, window mechanisms etc.

They had fibre glass fenders and hood and anything else that could be lightened was done. These cars dominated their class, to the point where they now run in a class of their own, where some factory survivor and purpose built clones compete with each other to this day.

Run Watcha Brung & Hope You Brought Enough

1965 hemi super stock t shirt designThe first NHRA event held in 1965 was known as the Woodstock of drag racing. This was at a time where the crowd would actually stand around the two race cars at the starting line. Then they would literally part to let the cars pass!

Some would stand so close behind the cars, they could actually see the dash controls of the car in action! Talk about close calls. This was the start of many crowd packed events from the mid 60’s until the late 70s.

Here we have a pair of 1965 Dodge and Plymouth hemi cars, complete with fuel injection stacks. The saying run watcha brung meant that when you showed up to race for the day or evening, you had best be sure to bring all that you got.

Meaning your setup had to be the best of the best. It was truly an all or nothing be all and end all racing event. There were practically no rules. You ran what ever fuel you could get your hands on. The tune up was often set on kill for most.

Both suspension and engine tune wise. Be prepared to break some parts.
