Gary RIP.

2nd set

Very nice. Hard to believe so much time has gone by.

RIP Gary.

Thanks for sharing, sure do miss Gary.

Wonder why I didn’t make it over there.... Brian’s orange Duster hasn’t run for many years, believe he’s still planning a gen III for it. See Mopar Billy made the trek from Phoenix.... think I still have that disc and a Vegas one in the archives Ted.

Billy's old Challenger was wrecked coming home from Drag Week 2018. Just saw a picture of it on Facebook, and it's not repainted. Glad to see it survived.

Kinda hard to see threads like this with Gary, and Billy gone now. Two guys that were big parts of Moparts.

J Bod, we had a blast in those days, It really hurt a lot for me to have to walk away 8 years ago. I did what I had to do to serve the Vets of this GREAT country and my Family, I now am ready to return to the FUN, I will need lots of help from the Moparts guys, so much to re-learn. Where is G-Bob? So many Great Guys we have LOST But NOT Forgotten! May they all RIP.

Stay Safe Amigo!

PS. I will see if I can find the Intro of the Moparts Shootout Video and post.

Glen has kind of dropped off the Mopar map the last few years as well. Once he go the yellow car where he wanted it and his wifes car finished he took a step back id guess. He does have some other unique interests like playing a bag pipe in a band and performing for folks. Maybe one day he will come back. Miss those days even though I was not able to participate much always enjoyed the stories when I caught up with the crew.

Al your too humble, you are the one we all looked to for a push in the right direction. I hope to pit near you in the future my friend.

L.A. back in the days of smog
Thanks Ted, I didn't know I was in this video
I won my first and second drag racing trophy (racing my mothers 273 powered 1964 Dart, it was one of the first 273 V8 Darts in SO CA at that time) at Mickey Thompsons old Fontana Drag City in the spring of 1964
That hooked me on drag racing, DANG IT
What was the dates on that race at Fontana Ted?

How you doing CAB, May 26-27 2007.
