About me and my passion for cars
I have been involved in Drag Racing since High School (1960) This season (2008) will be my 48th year at the Drags. Have had MANY cars over the years. Wish I had kept more pics!
My thanks to my Mother, Marie..8/23/16 - 6/21/08 for her understanding and support of my racing addiction over the past 50yrs. She was was an avid John & Ashley Force fan and supporter and also a great fan of my NASCAR buddy, Carl Edwards. She will be missed both at home & at the track!
RIP Mom.
