Dennis Maurer

Dennis Maurer passed away last week. He was the wings behind Judy Lilly. Judy proceded Dennis in death. Dennis practiced his craft of Drag Racing at many tracks around Denver since the 60's. His engine building skills propelled him to National prominence as Judy won races nationally. Dennis and his engine building knowledge will be missed.

He was a one of a kind character for sure.

I have been to his shop and chatted with him
a few times 30 years ago.

While not the friendliest fella, his duster did haul tail! Sad to see another one go.

This is sad news. He was my friend and I enjoyed visiting with him. Condolences to the family.

Dennis was a smart guy that definitely thought out of the box.
