\"Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday\" was a popular phrase used by car salesmen in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Advertisements bragged about recorded ETs; discussed Cruise-O-Matic, Clutch-flight, or Hydra-Matic transmissions; and offered details on cylinder-head designs. Even songs on the radio taught people about 409 engines and limited slip differentials. The family sedan was no longer used just to got o church and the grocery store.
Super Stock: Drag Racing The Family Sedan traces the roots of supers tock drag racing from its earliest days, through many ups and downs including a General Motors corporate edict against it, to its demise in 1968. Author Larry Davis uses firsthand accounts to give an up-close retelling of races on city streets, on drag strips with bystanders in the staging lanes, to official NHRA and NASCAR events.
