Behind every five-second run was a crewman carrying the weight of a driver’s life in his hands.
In Chasing Speed, Kevin Hendricks takes readers inside the loud, dangerous, and rarely seen world behind professional drag racing. From a modest childhood in Ohio to the pit crews of legendary Top Fuel and Funny Cars, Hendricks built a career on instinct, discipline, and the ability to stay calm when everything around him was heat, noise, pressure, and speed.
Working with icons such as the Blue Max, Gary Ormsby, Eddie Hill, and some of the most respected names in NHRA history, Hendricks reveals what fans never see: the frantic engine rebuilds, the overnight hauls, the bonds between crewmen, the wildlife on the road, and the razor-thin margin between victory and disaster.
Funny, candid, and full of high-octane memories, Chasing Speed is more than a racing memoir. It is a tribute to the people behind the car—the ones who make the run possible.
For anyone who has ever loved speed, engines, or the untold stories behind a finish line, this is one ride worth taking.
