That footage is from a 1/2 hour movie called "The Age of Drag Racing". I have it on tape here somewhere, taped it off a nostalgia racing show Dave Despain was hosting on ESPN2, a must have if you can find it. It covers Dick Landy as he gets ready for the World Finals at Ontario Motor Speedway.(..or Supernationals?) and the race itself. There's a little coverage of Top Fuel, Funny Car and Pro Stock. It also has some neat testing footage from OCIR.

The shows were called "The Glory Days". Sounds as though ESPN still owns the shows and there is very little chance they'll ever be released.
 
Man, those were the days! Loved that shot of JJ doing the burnout comin' 'round the corner.

Thanks for the link.
