In this episode of Legends, the Series, season four, the 16-time Funny Car champ talks about enduring polio, the influence of his brother Louie, his family’s “Grapes of Wrath” lifestyle, a father whose pride was not evident until after his death, learning to deal with pressure and how he would most like to be remembered.
“I didn’t know I was a poor child,” the 148-time NHRA tour winner said of his years growing up in seven-member family anchored by a truck driving dad and a fry cook mom. “I thought it was the greatest time of my life.”

In this CompetitionPlusTV video, Lee explains how each day is a blessing and how driving a Funny car again is a inspirational experience.

To our best knowledge, even the master of cool Don "The Snake" Prudhomme never attempted this.
But, for drag racers, cabin fever and a long winter's break will force some into the absurd.
