Danny "Poison" Oakes Legendary Midget car driver

I would like to inform you of the passing of my father Danny "Poison" Oakes.

He died on Sat. Jan. 13th at the age of 95 years old. I believe he was the
oldest living midget car driver in the country. A memorial within the racing
community will be held in his honor in the near future. If you have any 

questions, please contact us.

 

Sincerely, 

 

Dana DesRosier and Family
