My good buddy, Jim Devine won the stock/super stock combo at Renegade Raceway yesterday. For a guy who’s age is a little south of 80 we are sure proud of him. He’s run that car since the mid 70s.

I've raced Jim a few times, not sure that I ever beat him drive

Here is a picture of me in my Demon up against him at Renegade. Probably about 10 - 15 years ago.

Awesome! Being a 4 speed at 80ish makes it even better.

He’s a one man band, he has log books dating back to when he got the car. He has it down to a science. Before the Duster he raced a 65 Dart GT, 273 4 speed car in Junior Stock

I've seen that car at Firebird raceway up here I believe. Good for him to still be out there having fun!

Good for him! What kind of E.T.'s/MPH does he get out of "Lemon Twister"?

Collecting his winnings. Oh, by the way, that’s the original paint on that car and it’s an original 340 car.

Nice job! Nice car! Man, I’m 68, and guys like him give me hope, to race for many more years.

Need to start calling him "Mr-Octo-Man" as in octogenarian. Boy that's impressive.
