The Power and the Glory

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

The story of motor racing.
Years of Thunder. From zero to 300mph in six seconds, nose-to-tail racing at 200mph, ear-splitting exhausts, gigantic crowds - this is motor racing the American way. Both drag racing and stock-car racing started illegally on the streets of America and have become part of the country's popular culture. Today they are multi-million-dollar businesses.
