Darrell Russell Memorial Auction online items
11/23/2004
Due to a huge response from NHRA fans around the world, the final segment of the Darrell Russell Memorial Auction will be offered live on the World Wide Web via a special online auction site. More than 80 unique items are being placed on the auction block for the next seven days and bidders are encouraged to visit www.nhra.com/DRauction or click on the link below to view the items and make their offers.
The live and silent auctions held at the season-ending Auto Club NHRA Finals netted more than $270,000 for Russell's widow Julie, far exceeding the pre-event expectations of organizers Larry and Ally Dixon. Now they hope to add to that total with this final online auction. Please check back often as items will be added throughout the day.
