Any of you out there old enough to remember the early days of Pro Stock should remember "Dyno" Don Nicholson. He, Gapp & Roush and Bob Glidden were the forces to be dealt with from Ford.

I'm sorry to hear that... I remember him from when I was a kid, he had a yellow, red, and blue pro stock Mustang II...

I watched him race superstock Mercury cars back in the 60's.
A sad passing to lose a drag racing hero.
