Re: RIP Vern Moats
He was a racer for years-first saw him at Minnesota Dragways-always a strong runner.One by one the old guard leave us.

Re: RIP Vern Moats
So sorry to see this ... Thanks for letting us know.
Vern was a long time staple in D5 and at denver, way back in at least the 80's that I recall with the Olympia beer car... Worked non stop on the car, drove the truck, what ever it took.. Always seemed to work his butt off and love drag racing.

Re: RIP Vern Moats
I've been to his shop a few times. He was a hell of a dedicated racer. R.I.P. Great man.

Re: RIP Vern Moats
I had a lengthy conversation with Vern in Topeka a few years back. Both of us were division 5 racers in the 60's and early 70's. I stopped to raise a family and Vern kept going, and going, and going.
What a guy... thought he would be around forever. RIP
