Don Garlits Wynn's Jammer t-shirt - Men's
A half-century ago, things moved at a much slower pace, but if your name was "Big Daddy” Don Garlits, it wasn’t that much slower. In the summer of 1964, the No. 1 all-time greatest driver on NHRA’s list of Top 50 Drivers was using his amazing expertise for engine technology and innovation to move at speeds that many, even today, would find astounding. And on Aug. 2, 1964 at Island Dragway in Great Meadows, N.J., the great innovator etched his name in not just the record books, but unquestionably in the history books as well with his 7.78-second pass in his "Wynn's Jammer" at 201.34 that "officially" broke the 200-mph barrier that many believed would never be broken (Technically, Chris Karamesines had "unofficially" broken the barrier a few years prior, but did not certify for the record). This is also the car that Don took to England in when he served as a Goodwill Ambassador for the 1964 NHRA Goodwill Tour
