A unique look at the on-the-edge subculture of hot rodding and drag racing which began during WWII and still thrives today. Through its outlaw status, this culture has fuelled garishly decorated custom cars, outlaw rock and artists like Robert Williams and big Daddy Ed Roth. Author Leah Kerr begins at the race track and takes you on a full tour, from the first black superstar of racing to the annual blessing the cars' ritual, from old JD movies to death-defying rides.'
