A legend to some around georgia and alabama. When I was just starting my racing, The Headman, was in his prime. The late 80's and early 90's he was one of the guys you had to beat. I'll never forget making a Hav-a-Tampa late model race at EAMS my first year in a late model. I was racing with some guy in the back and thought I was doing pretty good for a rookie and Head and someboy else lapped us racing for the lead. Head came by on the outside sideways and half off the track and was gone. I knew I had some work to do then.

Not only a great racer but overall person as well. Big influence in the sport for sure.

Forgive them

Dunno if I ever did see Mike race, maybe at Pennsboro, but I dunno if he ever went there. I wanna say I never did.

Sad to hear, I remember him from different articles, results, the memorial for his boy.

When did you first start going to Eldora? He was a mainstay there for the big races

So sorry to hear that, he was/is a pretty cool dude. Goy to interact with him during those Havatampa days!

Cool story.......After GRT lost their mojo, in the late 90's, we parked beside Mike at a race at Thunderbowl. We were comparing our struggles with our grt as well, and Mike said........Joe better get in his blankety blank helicopter and come fix my racecar!

One of the coolest moments in my 40-ish years of attending big time DLM events around the country, and especially at my home track Florence Speedway, was ... Mike Head winning the North/South 100 in 1990. I still remember every moment, including his post-race interview. It was amazing. I still get chills. Wow.

Sorry to hear, but I praise you guys for the good words you have bestowed apon him. Good job guys. I came from Pennsylvania and was more of a sprint car and modified guy back in the day.

I remember the year Mike won the north south 100 I wasn't there we always went to Jackson 100 which back then was the week after the north south we got to brownstown pits an ther were so many people standing around his car you could barely see the car you know Ronnie Johnson bought his first car from mike head.
