CLASSIC VIDEO - 1980 NHRA WORLD FINALS - TOP FUEL

 

 

Take a trip back in time when NHRA appeared on NBC's Sportsworld, a sports variety show aimed to do battle with ABC's Wide World of Sports. The race coverage was broken down into two episodes with one focusing on Top Fuel and the other on Funny Car and Pro Stock. This video focuses on the historic three-driver championship battle eventually won by Shirley Muldowney at the final race hosted by Ontario Motor Speedway.
