I know there is a ton of guys on here who not only respect Ron, but really loved watching the 501" small block build on the silvalient project.
I am a thinking he lurks on here time to time, and would hope he see this thread.

So with that, lets see how many of you guys will post on here to bring him back.

Hope this thread stays in the race section. His threads were Race only threads for the most part.


Come back Ron!!!

I remember when he had the blue Demon. I had a 71 Demon at the time and mine was also small tire and about as fast, but nowhere near as nice as his. Mine was BB, his SB. Pretty much started paying attention to anything he was building from that point forward. Not sure why he left, but I would also vote for his return.

Seems we are missing a few of the good ones...

When I was drooling over his build I sent him a few e-mails asking about removing weight. He not only answered but sent me a ton of pictures so I could do similar things to my Dart.

I`ve known Ron for many years and although most our conversations were on the phone, we`ve raced at different tracks together and I remember very well reading about his awesome and fast builds in different mags drooling over his skills. We talked for a while and his mood was good and seemed open to check back in...........

One thing I always appreciated was that he takes very good pictures of detail-type stuff. It takes effort to do that! I saved some of them to my computer just to have 'em for reference. They were actually invaluable when I was trying to execute similar ideas on my own car.

You can tell that he puts a lot of critical thought into the things he does which is something I strive to do myself.

I'd like to see another one of his builds here, for sure.
