Event Coverage Vintage MoKan-The Dave Hightower Photo Collection

Bob Sullivan (?)

 

Tom, thanks so much for these. Early MoKan looks a lot like the track near me at Elizabeth City, NC when I was growing up. I wonder what happened to all the great cars in the photos? Every region of the country must have a bounty of old drag machines sitting around in garages and shops. 'Hope they are still around somewhere and not gone for good. 'Haven't seen you posing much lately...hope all is well with you and yours!

 

Good to hear from you, Tom! I post less, as I am going to fewer shows. I covered Pebble Beach last year, but elected not to post it here for being off topic. Carol and I are doing well.

 

Thanks for posting these. Brings back memories of when it was cool.

 

Those were great photos of great days. Thanks for posting.

 

Wow !.... What a trip back to a much simpler time,... I really miss those days.

 

The rail in the first post is Bob Sullivan’s Pandamonium IV, (that’s the way Bob spelled it) and the second photo is Pandamonium V. The way the story goes is Bob and some pals were drinking a few beers and after looking at his wife’s Barracuda they decided to put the fuel Hemi from the dragster in the car and compete in the early FC match races.

 

so cool
