Lee Kerahans father built the Ford. Walthing Matilda. It sucked up dust at the start of every race and couldnt fet a run in. I remember a twin stick b model Mack of Macdonalds that day blow away a fueled up 903. Awesome day at Calder park and still got some great pics from that day
I was there all those years ago at Calder Park as a young tacker. Still have the photos of that day. The Ford Louie was Waltzing Matilda, a Jet Truck.
I had the fortune of seeing Tyrone do a small show at the Montgomery County Airpark in Gaithersburg, MD back in the very early 80s. It was amazing! RIP Tyrone.
The video is from down under , i was there at Calder Park in Melbourne, all those years ago. look like some film from the Surfers Paradise raceway and Adelaide International as well, thanks for posting the Vid. The jet truck was a 8000 Ford Louie from memory.Great to see some of drag racings history.
Ahh the memories huh Steve...I have a vague recollection of seeing it (and the Louisville).I was from Sydney..I wonder if they we're at Castlereigh or Oran Pk aswell.??
I must have been 8 or 9 when it was at calder park. I think it was 1974 -75 can't remember. I was in 'Redneck Wonderland' for a day there. There i heard my first ever Nitro A/Fuel digger, Warren Armours I think.. Love'd them ever since.
Awesome trucks!! My dad and I saw them live in Stockholm/Sweden/Europe doing donuts and burnouts when I was like 9 years old
