Well i got into dragracing from my Dad, He raced a 1968 Hemi Dart in super stock racing. My first street/drag car was a 1969 Dodge Charger with a 440, It ran in the 14.0's, So i went to work at the age of 14 on farm's, Mowing yards ETC. So every year with my money i would chat with older racers that had been racing for years asking what parts i needed. My Dad raised me to work for what i wanted other than food and shelter. So every year i would buy parts and when i had enough my Dad helped me pull the engine rebuild it install the parts i had bought. Then i was in the 11.0's. So that is how and with what i got started :!: :!: I remember what he taught me and my other brothers and sisters so here i am today :!: :!: Just work at it little by little and you will be where you want to be don't get too excited too quick set your goal and go after it :!: :!:
