Pat Ganahl, hotrodder, was killed racing his vintage GMC dragster last weekend, possibibly due to a medical issue..........he was involved with US Street Rodder magazine in the 1980's, was instrumental in the republication of Rod & Custom Magazine in 1989, a long time contributor to The Rodders Journal, an Author of a number of Hot Rod & Custom Car themed and History books and a Model Car builder.............I never met nor spoke to the man but through his writings felt that he knew me.............my condolences go to his family and friends....he will be missed...........Andy Douglas
