This article is about the US television series. For the sporting term, see straight (racing).

Straightaway is a 26-week half-hour drama series which ran on ABC television during the 1961–1962 season –the story of two young men who operate a garage and engage in auto racing.^[1]^[2] John Ashley and Brian Kelly played race car designers Clipper Hamilton and Scott Ross, respectively. Scott designed the vehicles, and Clipper was the mechanic. Many of the episodes centered on the clients who brought a race car to the Straightaway Garage.^[3] The series was originally planned to be named “The Racers”, but the title had to be altered because of sponsor problems.

Straightaway ran at 7:30 Eastern on Fridays opposite CBS’s Rawhide with Clint Eastwood and Eric Fleming.^[4] Straightaway was moved to Wednesdays effective January 10, 1962, for the remainder of its run.^[5]

Selected episodes

The premiere episode, “The Leather Dollar”, aired on October 6, 1961; in the story line, Scott and Clipper agree to sponsor a young boxer, but the manager is betting against his client. New episodes ended on April 4, but ABC re-ran the program until July 4.
