About Don Nicholson
- Don Nicholson (May 28, 1927 - January 24, 2006) was an American drag racer from Missouri.
- He raced in the 1960s and 1970s when there were few national events.
- The National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) estimates he won 90 percent of his match races.
- As of 2002, he held the record for the most number of categories in which he reached a final round (won or took second at an event): Funny Car, Pro Stock, Super Stock, Competition Eliminator, Stock, and Street.
- He was nicknamed "Dyno Don" after he was one of the first drivers to use a chassis dynamometer on his cars in the late 1950s, a skill that he learned while working as a line mechanic at a Chevrolet car dealer.
