The mongoose and the snake


I guess silly nicknames must be part of US drag racing folklore-these two certainly are. Don 'the snake' Prudhomme and Tom 'Mongoose' Mcewen ruled fuel funny car back in the 70s. Fortunately, less well-known were jerry 'fudge' packer and tom 'uphill' gardener. ok, I made the last two up.
