It's the 60th anniversary of NHRA's visit to Britain for the 1964 International Drag Festival and Eurodragster.com has published the story of how it all came about:
Sydney Allard was a manufacturer of sports cars powered by American V8s. He raced at Le Mans 24 Hours and twice won the Monte Carlo rally, the only driver to achieve victory in a car of his own creation.
The money references are shown in our pre-decimal currency, pounds, shillings and pence.
Note the fateful date of Wally Parks' first letter.
