Hobbyist Dick Towers passed away

Submitted by Randy Holden:

We’re saddened to report that Mopar drag racing historian and hobbyist Dick Towers passed away on Friday, December 23 at the age of sixty-six. Dick had been battling cancer for some time. Dick is well-known in the hobby as the owner/operator of Match Race Madness.com and as one of the premier organizers of nostalgia race events coast-to-coast. Dick, along with friends Mike Guffey and Jim Kramer, began holding some of the earliest Super Stock reunion events in the country back in the early 1990s, and he continued to organize these events on through this year. Towers has had a number of Hemi Super Stock cars himself and used to race in SS/D and SS/LA classes. He still owned a ‘68 Hemi Road Runner that he’d bought brand-new.

Dick Towers was a serious driving force in the realm of vintage Mopar drag cars, and his knowledge and influence will be missed very much. Our condolences go out to the Towers family.
