Since the very beginning of what we now know as the world of drag-and-drive competition, it has existed as a unique and wholly interesting subset of the sport of drag racing. More than that, it has evolved in ways that are singular in and unto itself.

A scene that I have referenced previously happened at a hotel in Michigan on a Thursday evening in 2005. This was the night preceding the last day of Drag Week. There was a good group of guys sitting around this table and the conversation was about when the hotel would run out of Corona and the future for an event like Hot Rod Drag Week.
