About me and my passion for cars
I have been involved in Drag Racing since High School (1960) 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.
I am now involved with booked Nostalgia Match Races and putting on Nostalgia Exhibition passes at drag strips across the country in my injected nitro burning Hurst Olds.
Member: NHRA Heritage Series competeing in Nostalgia Eliminator Class II.
Due to health and the economy, the Olds and trailer are up for sale. Serious inquiries will be answered. More specs and pics available upon request.
Thanks for visiting my pages!
