Pacers Auto, Inc.® was a popular, record-setting drag racing team in the early 1950s and 1960s. Based in Oceanside, New York on Long Island, The Pacers' "Snizek & Dodge Racing Team" made up of co-owners George Snizek as driver, and Charlie Dodge as tuner, were favored by fans and feared by competitors.
