Board Certified Banks

Gale was appointed to the board of directors at the NHRA Museum. For this reason you could say Banks is board certified. Although Gale Banks has been a part of the automotive performance scene for over 60 years now, but in 2012 the Automobile Club of Southern California and the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports in Pomona, California announced that he was appointed to the museum board of directors.

“What I hope to bring to the museum is a clear view into the future, its challenges, and its opportunities,” Banks said. “I’m excited about all the possibilities for the museum and creating a great visitor experience, I look forward to working with the other board members.”

Gale is an active board member today. The Gale Banks Automotive Technology Exhibit is a must-see for anyone into racing due to Gale’s legendary status in the racing world. In the past, Gale has hosted Duramax Days at the museum in connection with GM Powertrain. The event has hosted a group of media members, educators, technicians, lead users, and aftermarket Duramax specialists. Additionally, the event served as a deep dive into the Duramax engine’s history and technology.
