He's my all time favorite racer, builder and pioneer of drag racing. Me and the wife drove down to Florida one year and happen to run into his museum.
I was like a kid in a toy store. When we left the museum Don and his wife were just pulling out of their garage. We passed them on the way out.

don is the man. that wheelie at e-town was serious

Here's a couple of pictures I took back in 1971. Don was at Island for a match race (forget who he raced) At this year's 50th anniversary meet I showed these pic's to Don and he was amazed he ran at Island without a wing. I gave him an extra pic (side shot). He also autographed the pic's I had with me. Neat Stuff

Great photos hazguy, the push truck with his name on the wood planks is so cool to see!!! thanks

Here's a sequence of pic's from the infamous wheelstand. My brother got the burn out and Don's return down the track after he put the dragster in a giant power wheelstand. Then flipped over backwards coming back down the track and clicking it off.
