Very cool
WOW, to read about a guy like this, who is just like guys like us is grounding for me, no ego going on with this guy at all, he let's his name and engine power speak for himself for sure. Very interesting guy I might add, and I would love to spend a weekend with him some time, I am sure I could learn a ton off his wing. Nice info and thanks for sharing it with us.

Elky Man,
The more you are around you will discover that most of the guys who have really accomplished a lot in the performance arena are in their mind really no different than anyone else is. They are just real people, just like you and me, in their minds and eyes.
If by chance you are a christian believer, let me tell you something else that may mean something to you.
When you get a chance at any National NHRA racing event, attend the *Racer's for Christ* meetings before the race. You will see the biggest names in drag racing in there worshiping God, praying and lifting their arms up to the Lord and real tears rolling down their face as they are there in worship and in prayer.
Those are real people with real hearts and real cares and also real problems. Just like you and me.
