I hope I'll get to see him sometime-it was good to get to know him at the ASRA races-he even liked that I referred to him as Brenda's dad.

Mixed emotions, I would guess, but congratulations. A good racer, person as well as a good teacher! Brenda is fortunate to have you as a dad. It was a pleasure meeting you.

The Last Pass!

Having to watch Bob's "Last Pass" during the ASRA race was difficult.
Knowing "Hot Wheels" for over 40 years. I begged him to reconsider, but he kept offering cookies (private joke, his wife is Armenian)
His mind was made up, no tuning back.
The "Lil" blue Nova has gone to a "Great new home" (the Deuce factory)

One of the most "Respected" Drag Racers I've ever known!

Congratulations on your retirement Bob,
Your one of the Best!

Greg

I think we will see just as much of Bob and Sandy next year as we have this year, he just won't have his stocker. I suspect and hope he will be at all the races at New England . Rumor has it he is crew chief for Brad Rose who is coming out of retirement and has been working on his camaro. It was great that Bob made his last runs in the Nova at one of the ASRA events. He always kept track of the Association even when he lived in Texas and Georgia.

Many nice things have been said here about Bob, they are just a small sampling of the man he is.
