Re: Div 3 racer Dan Wilson passes
This news is hard to believe. My nephews raced with him at coles county drag strip. I talked with him many times at D3 events.

Re: Div 3 racer Dan Wilson passes
Used to see him at Assumption. He had a Camaro. Later he had a brown GS 350 stocker. I believe he lost the Camaro and GS in a fire. He was quite a guy. RIP Dan.

Re: Div 3 racer Dan Wilson passes
I am sitting here SHOCKED by this horrible news but I probably shouldn’t be. We are losing racers at an alarming rate. Dan raced a Buick Apollo long before it was cool to race an Apollo. Dan always wore a button down shirt, I never once saw him in a T shirt at the track. I guess you tend to dress better when you work at a School/college. I haven’t seen him in a number of years …HE was ONE of a kind …..GODSPEED …….

Re: Div 3 racer Dan Wilson passes
Sorry to hear this. Always enjoyed visiting with Dan. Even though he didn't go to NHRA races anymore he kept up with what was going on and he would message me on FB about it.
RIP Racer Dan you will certainly be missed. Rob Turkal 3105 H/S |
