Frank Manzo: A Man Who Wanted To Win Just One Race

The legend of Frank Manzo opens with the story of a man who wanted to win just one race. The final chapter of his racing career concluded with a man who won as much on the track as off. The numbers are astonishing 17 series championships, 21 divisional titles, 118 divisional victories and 105 national event wins. The name Frank Manzo conjures a reputation of a drag racer who won with the two ingredients which should fuel any aspiring champion - hard work and dedication. Inspired by his father, Mazo drove his way to 17 NHRA Lucas Oil championships in Pro Comp and Top Alcohol Funny Car, a feat admired by millions of drag racing fans including iconic fuel racer John Force. Force quipped, "To the bone Manzo. Bad to the bone." In this latest installment of Legends: The Series, we talk to Manzo about his dreams fulfilled, having any regrets bypassing the nitro train and his fascination with NASCAR racer Dale Earnhart. Manzo opens up about his decision to walk away from drag racing
