    Select Drag-Racing Videos

  1. Step 1

    Determine the type of drag racing in which you are interested. Drag racing can refer to everything from professional "top fuel" dragsters, which are some of the fastest-moving machines ever created by man, or amateur racing with stock cars. There are quite a few videos available on street racing.

  2. Step 2

    Select which type of drag racing video you want to see. These can vary from instructional videos, which will show you tips on how to build a proper drag racing car or improve your drag racing times or just videos that contain footage of the drag races themselves.

  3. Step 3

    Visit a local video or DVD retailer and browse through the motorsports section to select the drag racing videos that appeal to you. You may even be lucky enough to find a clerk or store manager who shares your enthusiasm for drag racing and can make specific recommendations to you based upon his experiences.

  4. Step 4

    Participate in online discussion groups or forums that revolve around motorsports and drag racing specifically. You can ask the other forum members or posters which drag racing videos they find to be the most informative or exciting.

  5. Step 5

    Use online resources to locate and select drag racing videos for purchase. Websites such as Amazon.com offer discussion forums that rate and talk about the various drag racing videos, and even allow you to buy them directly at the site (see Resources below).
