ferndaleflyerCarol "Bunny" Burkett
Passed away April 4th at 74 years old. Probably as well known as anyone in NHRA Div 1 with her AA/FC ride...I remember her and Husband Mo from the time they raced a 65 Mustang until her funny car days....Great people.

A39CoronetI met her back in the 90s when she made a few exhibition passes at Quaker City Dragway in Ohio. I remember her sitting in a directors chair signing autographs, great big smile and clearly happy to be doing it. I was only 8 or 9 but remember her car vividly and that she put on a great show.

ferndaleflyerI just happened to flip on a you tube race from back in the 70s last night and there was Bunny in her pink Pro Stock Pinto. Last time I saw her they had their stuff at Dennis Moores shop in Baltimore. Their sons were racing Jrs and making exabitions runs in Jr funny cars. Wonder what happened to those

wideopen231Raced Bunny and her guys lots back in 90's. Bill Barrett was tuner and Bear was most of her team. Nice folks. Class act all around .
Remember her asking my driver(Rickey Bowie) that since we where quicker would he give her the light.Hay she tried anyway.
