Scott Kalitta Killed at Old Bridge Township
It is always a sad day when we lose a racer, and today is no exception. We as classic car and hot rod restorers are also fasinated with drag racing and so most of us have heard of todays tragic news.
During the 4th qualifying round of the NHRA Powerade Drag Racing Series at Old Bridge Township in New Jersy, Scott Kalitta was killed in a tragic accident at the raceway.
The Kallita name is a very famous name in the racing world. Scotts father Connie Kalitta is a very succesful drag racer and so it was no surprise that Scott was able to accomplish all he had.
Scotts carrer that spanned close to 20 years included 2 Top Fuel championships and numerous wins. He was very well liked by his competitors and fans in the NHRA garage.
We at Old-Car-Parts.com want to express our upmost sympathy to Scotts wife and sons and also to Connie and the rest of the Kalitta family.
