Most every drag racing fan will proclaim "Big Daddy" Don Garlits as the greatest drag racer who ever strapped himself into a dragster. But mention it to Garlits, and he will say he never liked being branded this. Instead, he offers, "I'm just me."

Don Garlits' record breaking run of 272 mph to earn him the distinction of being the 1st to break 270 mph in NHRA Drag Racing, while defeating former NFL Quarterback Dan Pastorini in the semis of Top Fuel at the 1986 Gatornationals, and without a doubt, this was THE race of the day.

Kids, this is why they will forever call him "BIG DADDY"

Don Garlits talks about what changed his life forever!

Tom Loughlin Jr.
Thanks for your testimony, brother Garlits. Happened to me, too. I testified in my own motorcycle drag racing magazine and Christian motorcyclists from all over the world thanked me, and we started holding prayer meetings before every DRAGBIKE! race.I can only begin to imagine the encouragement your testimony has brought to Christian car racers everywhere. I know why you hesitated. I felt a bit of that, too. when I shunned the offer of prayer for my injured shoulder from two ministers named Kalstrup and Forrestal from Iowa..when they saw me in pain at a Tulsa Ok poolside. Finally< i accepted, was healed and , like you, spread the word. Thanks, Don. Victory over pain and evil is ours. We just have to ask.

During the work on HEMI: A History of Chrysler's Iconic V-8 in Competition, I had a chance to spend a day with Don Garlits as he put together a cackle engine for the 2014 season. Providentially, this was going into the replica of Swamp Rat 8, the first Garlits dragster to use the 426 engine architecture. As you will see, the results could not have been better....

Big Daddy Don Garlits does not need any further presentation to those who are into fast cars and drag racing. For those who never heard about Big Daddy Don Garlits we can only say that the name "Big Daddy" tells it all. He is a living legend, a grand father of world wide drag racing. He has raced since he was 18 and he is still racing at the age of 84. He has been in several major accidents but always survived by the grace of God. In this episode Rev. Pontus J. Back met Big Daddy Don Garlits in his private shop at his museum of drag racing in Ocala, Florida. In this episode Don is talking about his life, his career but most important of all; about his faith in God.

227K subscribersDon Garlits, the “Father of Drag Racing,” was the first to break 170, 180, 200, 240, 250, and 270 MPH marks in the quarter mile, but his desire to give God the glory is what grabbed the headlines.

A cross and the words, “God Is Love” on his car lost him a $75,000 sponsorship deal and earned scorn from fellow racers, who said, “He’s just looking for a Big Daddy sponsor in the sky!”

That car won him over $600,000. Find out the reason for “Big Daddy” Don Garlits’ success in this fascinating story with Bruce Fjarli.
