Diamond P announcer Steve Evans might have best summed up Frank Hawley's career when he proclaimed, "Frank Hawley, is arguably drag racing's greatest rags to riches story." An aspiring drag racer, Hawley, applied by mail and was hired by veteran team owner Austin Coil. Coil was tough on his youthful driver but very insightful, and the lessons learned crafted the Canadian-based competitor into not only a champion, but also one of drag racing's more talented instructors. In this episode of Legends: The Series, Hawley laughingly describes the Coil tutelage, his childhood of exploration and his desire to do what it took to earn a top driving gig. Hawley also discusses his fateful appointment to drive for a paralyzed Darrell Gwynn, as well as developing his popular driving school. Hawley talks about his career and how it would have been worthy of a Hollywood script.
