Just turned 60; started late '60s with high school buddy's car @ Lions. By '71 crewed a C/G '63 Vette and had a '57 Chevy built for MP that saw a lot of street racing because I was foolish. Then worked on FC & Baja stuff, bodies and minor fab work. Then got into road-racing for awhile but mostly building/restoring: Can Am, TransAm, NASCAR Southwest Tour, had a canyon-carver. Then crewed a Sprint Car & got a few rides in that. Back into drag racing (brackets) in '94, but that's tapered off a lot the last couple of years; ran some more road courses in my Mustang and am again leaning that way. Building another street/strip Mopar though for a more fun/less work drag car.
I'll say this: I've been fortunate to meet or work with some of my heroes, and even though I rubbed shoulders with a lot of Hollywood along the way, I'd rather hang out with racers than any other group of people.
