Shirley Muldowney

One thing I will say about Shirley , she had a goal in Drag Racing and she went for it !! Shirley didn't take any kind of crud from any man in the sport and she continued on and did just what she needed to do and she did it !! Shirley ,most people don't have even a clue on how rough the guys made it for her ,but she did get through all of it and this is what made Shirley Muldowney Drag Racings greatest woman in the sport !! Determination made Shirley a winner !!

How long have you been a race fan?
All my life
Tell us about yourself.
Well let me tell you , I grew up around Drag Racing my whole entire life ! I lived right across the street from US30 DRAGSTRIP IN Indiana !! I've seen it all ,from the early 60's to now 2009 !! All that I can say about myself is that I'm a total Drag Racing freak !!! I love Nastalgia Drags and the NHRA Drags !! I do know a lot of the Pros such as Roger Lindamood , Hayden Proffit , Al Bergler , Dick Bourgeois , Romeo Palamides ,Willie Borsch ,Gorden Mineo and the list just keeps growing so I'll stop right there !!! I'm all about Drag Racing and also I do collect the die-cast cars and anything that has to do with Drag Racing I do collect !!!!
Which other forms of racing do you follow?
Yes I am ! I love Drag Boat Racing , Mud Drags !! Just about anything that's related to Drag Racing !! My great great Uncle was an Indy Car racer and his name was Ralph DePalma ...That kind of racing really isn't my cup of tea ... I probably got the racing blood from my Uncle Ralph ! Drag Racing is my all time favorite sport !!

JA KAthy, I was changing sites and I notice you mentioned Roger Lindamood. He was at the York (Pa.) Musclecar Madness Show a couple of years ago. He was in great shape except for a shop accident that he lost one of his hands a few years ago. If you contact Darwin Doll, I am sure he has an address for him. He and I talked for a good while. He was as nice as ever. One of his "Color Me Gone" cars was there too.

Hi Robbie, I'm not all that sure how far Muncie is but I'll say anywhere from 21/2 to maybe 3 hrs , not for sure on that...

How close is US 30 dragstrip to Muncie? That's where my wife is from. She remembers going to the drags as a kid but couldn't remember where.

I was covering the WoO sprints Saturday and Z-Max Dragway is next to the dirt track. She made a comment about how if we will ever see a funny car again that's where we will have to go. So It's good bye Rockingham-Hello Z-Max for us now.
