If you’re into the folks who defined the golden era of quarter-mile racing, you can’t beat the opportunity to hear first-hand accounts from the men who were there. During the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals (MNACN), November 21-22, 2026, you will have the opportunity to do just that at the Drag Racing Living Legends seminar.
The list of attendees comes off as a Hall of Fame of several of the most spectacular racers ever: Arnie “The Farmer” Beswick, Buddy Martin (Sox & Martin), Herb “Mr. 4-Speed” McCandless, Butch “The California Flash” Leal, and Paul Rossi.
Auto journalist and drag racing historian Geoff Stunkard will lead an hour-long seminar on Saturday, November 21, so you can listen to living history as these legends share their stories.
Other automotive celebrity appearances at MCACN will include:
- Ed Hedrick, the guy who raced both the 1969 Yenko Camaro prototype for the automotive press, and his SS/E Yenko Camaro — the only drag Yenko Camaro ever produced.
- Jason Line, the now-retired drag racer and three-time NHRA Pro Stock champion.
- Claudia Abel, whom you may recognize as Miss Direct Connection 1984 and spokesperson for Chrysler’s Mopar Performance team.
- Chris Jacobs, who was the co-host of TV’s “Overhaulin’” with Chip Foose. These days, he provides commentary for several auctions plus makes appearances on other TV shows.
- Dennis Collins, host of the YouTube TV show “Coffee Walk,” in which he crisscrosses the country in search of vehicles to buy and sell.
