We were saddened to hear of the passing of the legendary Art Chrisman earlier in the week. The first to break the 140 and 180 MPH barriers in drag racing, Chrisman was also one of the first five members of the 200 MPH club at Bonneville. He was also known for his great eye for automotive styling. We salute you Sir. Rest in peace.
