(Photos by Richard Pasley) – NHRA Drag Racing at the Gatornationals was off the hook! We’re talking huge crowds, great racing, and a good time had by all! This is the start of a whole new year of NHRA Drag Racing and we know this season is going to be something special. We’ve already shared action photos from Gainesville thanks to longtime contributor David Whealon, but now we’ve got more coverage from Richard Pasley.

I’ve raced and announced a fair amount in the state of Florida and can tell you that the fans there are awesome. And boy did they get a great show at the 2023 Gatornationals. Check out the first gallery from Richard below!
I LOVE seeing that Barton Dart
I drug that thing out of a guys back yard–upper A arms were detached so we stuck a log of fire wood in there so we could load it
Came home washed it out with the hose–delivered to a nice rich guy that wanted to go SS racing–It first went to Ken Keir for the full treatment–then got swapped around and finally to where it is now–It is one of the most photographed Mopars in the world–I smile at my tiny little part in that cars history.
I bet that car has almost saved the US economy so much $$$$$$ has been spent on it through the decades
I gave a few hundred–sold it next day for $1800–Kens bill was over &70K and then I couldn’t even guess how many gillion bucks have been spent on it.
Would be interesting to know
Great photos, thank you.
