Any red-blooded race fan lucky enough to have been born of that era remembers these famous Funny Cars decked-out in bright Hot Wheels badges screaming down the 1/4 mile in a furious blur that lasted all of 5 sweet seconds. The two faced-off in match races that raged over a period of about 3 years. Their epic West Coast battles, fueled by huge sponsorship deals were a major draw, and their loyal fans never tired of seeing these two "Legends of the Quarter Mile" go head to head.
