Scotty Cannon is an innovator of drag racing in the Pro Modified class in the International Hot Rod Association (IHRA).[1] He has won 28 International Hot Rod Association Pro Modified finals, competing in 45.[2] Cannon has the most pro-modified victories as the Bristol Motor Speedway, with four.[3]
Scotty grew up in an area where most of the people enjoyed oval track racing, but he did not find that type of racing pleasing. He has a unique hairstyle by showing up on race day with a mohawk.[4] Cannon said, "I have had a Mohawk on and off for years. It started years ago when I would go the beach with my friends and we would Mohawk our hair just to have fun. During the racing seasons, I would Mohawk it and it seemed I would wear it more and more. It kind of stuck on me. I guess you could call it my trademark."
He started racing when he was 16. "I always had a natural love for drag racing, going straight and making the cars go as fast as they possibly could go," Cannon stated.[5]
Cannon was one of the most popular drag racer in IHRA when pro-mod became a professional category in 1990. He won 6 championships in the pro-mod class.[6] In 1998 cannon switched from IHRA to the National Hot Rod Association to a nitro-burning funny car. Then in 1999 Cannon was awarded rookie of the year in NHRA.[7] Cannon returned to IHRA Pro Modified in 2004. He currently drives a Top Fuel Dragster in IHRA Competition sponsored by Torco Race Fuels. His son, Scott Cannon Jr. drives a 1968 Pontiac Firebird Pro Mod, and was the 2007 IHRA World Champion.
