    I can't believe these numb-nutz idiots. One is in Chicago and the other is New Jersey.

    How do they figure a Maverick is a Dodge? It doesn't say "Dodge" anywhere on the car? Morons!...

    How much are old Maverick emblems worth anyway? I might be sitting on a fortune and don't even know it. :D

    Re: Dodge Maverick

    Well guys, yes and no on the wheel standing Dodge "Maverick" It is a Dodge built and driven by Bill "Maverick" Golden. Nicknamed Maverick because he dared to be different when he first built it. He has been at our track many times for special shows. Being he is from Searcy Arkansas, is a short trip to get here. Has a blown alchohol burning monster motor somewhere around 550 cubic inch, pulls the wheels immediately and holds them for full length of track(ours is 1000ft) seems to me it ran high 7's at 120+ mph on two wheels. He has been doing this for many years and has gone through several of those cab over pickup trucks. Is in the Hot Rod hall of fame as is one of his trucks. Can be seen on their website if memory is correct. Last time here, they performed a wedding on the starting line between two of his friends from Searcy and Bill was the best man(fire suit and all). Last I heard he is building a bigger motor for a new chassis, many have tried to copy his feats in other makes and models but there is just nothing like his own design and abilities to make it go down the strip straight at such speeds etc. Of course I am kind of partial to him because he is just a few years older than myself and still doing what he enjoys. How old is he you say? Seven zero is close if not a bit shy of his real age. And last but not least"Can you say Hemi? thats my boy". :clap: :clap:

    I was told by my father that the tail gate of that truck/van (what ever you want to call it was filled with lead. the motor brought it up and the tail gate held it there and that also helped in keeping it straight down the track. My dad talks about him quit a bit. He said he seen him down at the Gator Nationals a few times, and got the chance to talk with him.
