MOKAN History

Interesting thread on the MOKAN site. http://www.mokandragway.com/cgi-bin/iB301/ikonboard.cgi?s=420ff3250a2effff;act=ST;f=1;t=1444

 

WUZ JUNK..............thanks, great shot's from Mokan DragWay.....what a rich history of racing!!

 

Thanks WZ. I really enjoy the history of the older, lesser known tracks. It's amazing how many are still around, and you never hear about them unless you're a local. Thanks again.

GREAT site!

I am telling you guys - if you have not been to the HAMB drags at MOKAN you are missing one of the best times around!

Heres acouple of the vintage photos from the site:

 

John, when I saw Chuck's Wiillys in your shop I should have remembered.

I did not really recognize it until viewing the history link you posted.

When I saw Harley Estes Garage on the door, it brought it all back.

Harley helped me do the powerglide swap for a three speed on my 59 Impala back in 1960.

He, Alan Sloan and I were involved in a roundy round car. (Mostley Alan and Harley) but some of my money and time.

Harley, at that time, drove a 36 ford coupe with a big ol olds.

The Kennel Motors(Carthage,Mo., 60 Chevy was a regular, as was their 58 Impala 348. Kennel bros raced Pontiacs,too.

Cool website, Carl Blanton's notes are
interesting. too.

Hard to wait for the H.A.M.B. drags

 

Great pics John. Thanks for sharing the link. I hope Carl posts more soon!
