Georgia Racing Hall of
Fame induction Saturday
From staff reports
Since 2002, racing leg
ends and their fans have
gathered at the Georgia
Racing Hall of Fame for a
special celebration and
induction ceremony
where the next class of
racing superstars will be
immortalized in the
museum.
This year, the five
inductees are Charlie
Hughes, Dan Elliott, Dick
Anderson, the late Ranee
Phillips and the late
Russell Nelson. They
were selected from a
three-round voting pro
cess and secured the most
votes from a 60-member
panel from across the
state.
Charlie Hughes is a dirt
Late Model racer from
Dalton who began racing
in 1966 at North Georgia
Speedway. He continued
to race until 1997 where
he completed his last
race, once again at North
Georgia Speedway.
In 1976 Hughes had
one of the best seasons of
dirt Late Model racing,
winning 42 races that
year including the U.S.
Dirt Track Championship,
the sixth annual World
100 at Eldora Speedway
and the second annual
National 100 at East
Alabama Motor
Speedway.
Throughout his career,
Hughes racked up major
wins in the Midwest and
the Southeast with 37
wins at Dixie Speedway
and 14 at Rome
Speedway.
Dan Elliott, brother to
Bill Elliott, will be
inducted into the hall of
fame for his integral part
of the Elliott family team.
In the mid-1970s, the
Elliott family began com
peting in the Monster
Energy Cup with Bill
behind the wheel and his
older brothers, Dan and
Ernie working on prepar
ing the cars and servicing
on pit road.
Dan Elliott worked on
engines, transmissions
and changing tires during
races. By the 1980s, the
Elliott family had become
the dominant team on the
superspeedways.
Dick Anderson, from
Chamblee, founded
Carrera Shocks in 1964
and was an important
innovator and industry
leader for racers. He
invented coil-over shocks,
shock dynamometers and
other shocks specifically
built for drag racing.
Anderson was the first
to mass produce sprint
cars, which saved drivers
from the alternative of
building their own cars
from scratch.
In 1990, Anderson got
behind the wheel and
won first place in his divi
sion and second overall in
the Mexican Road Race.
Ranee Phillips was
known as “The Fugitive”
in his racing days as he
dominated the tracks
since his first race in
1964.
Phillips saw more than
700 feature wins and 19
track championships in
his 40-year career. He
was voted Most Popular
Driver at Golden Isle
Speedway in Brunswick
in 1973 as was inducted
into the Jacksonville
Racing Hall of Fame in
2009 and the National
Dirt Late Model Hall of
Fame in 2011.
He died in 2012 and
will be honored posthu
mously at Saturday’s cer
emony.
Russell Nelson of
Buford began his racing
career at the Peach Bowl
Speedway in Atlanta in
1960 and earned 364 fea
ture wins throughout his
career.
He won the Rattler at
South Alabama
Speedway in 1977 and
was a regular competitor
in the old All-Pro Series.
He will be honored
posthumously at
Saturday’s ceremony.
The 2018 Induction
Service will begin at 1
p.m. Aug. 11. Tickets are
$40 per person which
includes dinner and the
ceremony; they may be
purchased by phone at
(706) 216-7223 or by
mail at GRHOF, PO. Box
1561, Dawsonville, Ga.
30534.
