I've been helping another FABO member fix their car all day, just got back....

Man, what a bummer. He was such a nice guy.... #-o

I remember when my oldest son was about 5 and we met Bill Maverick at the Nats. He was super cool, easy to talk to, and posed for pictures with my son.... :glasses7:

We bought some memorabilia from him.


He was a great guy!!! rayer: rayer: rayer:

Sad news today, my uncle, drag racing legend, Bill Maverick Golden made his final run in life today. He had a great run. Many trophies, championships, titles, and of course, inventing and immordalizing the Little Red Wagon original wheelstander into drag racing history.
And he wasn't a bad fisherman, 2 Louisiana state records, king mackerel.
I'm gonna miss ya Bill. We had a lot of laughs, and breathed a lot of nitro together..
RIP my friend... hit the chutes and take that final turn.

Well this sucks! Another legend is gone.
He was a class act.

R.I.P. Bill. :burnout:

Sure sorry to hear this. We met him several yrs ago at Gateway. Very friendly fellow that didn't mind taking time to answer questions about his little Red Wagon. If you never saw him run it down the 1/4 mile you sure missed something exciting.
