After starting in the late sixties, I sat on the sidelines from about 1983 until 2003, due to health issues and the focus on raising a family. I never sold anything, though, I had run a couple of Nostalgia Races in the mid nineties, but probably didn't put thirty runs on the car during that time.

In 2003, my oldest son dusted it off and bought it out, now he has his own NSS Wedge and a S/G Duster, and my youngest son has a stroker powered 71 Satelite. Myself, I'm back in the saddle again, doing the Nostalgia thing a few times a year.

As far as "my era" being over, my good friend Bob George reminds me I'm a dinosaur, and he's right. I'm reminded "my era" is over whenever I watch Pass Time, or overhear some young guys conversation in the lanes about new style equipment and I have absolutely no clue what they are talking about. They might as well be speaking French or something.

So, "my era" ended many, many years ago.
