I have never got to meet Terry in person just know him from here and a phone conversation,he has always been straight shooter from what I've seen,and been told he would treat you fair when he was tech man.I hope to meet Terry in person one day, I'm sure we could talk for hours about stock& super stock past & present.

Agreed!!
We started a Junior Stock thread over at the H.A.M.B. a few years back hoping to find a few racers and fans from back in "the day" who would share their memories from a time period when the Stock class was at it's best. Terry's contributions and knowledge of the class have been simply amazing and a real benefit to the longevity of the thread. We've all learned so much from guys like Terry who were actually part of the sport back then. Yes, he is direct, to the point and tells it like it is or in our case, the way it was. Over at the Junior Stock thread, we wouldn't want it any other way. If you're looking for the real history of the sport or the way to make the current state of Sportsman racing a whole lot better, you just may want to consult guys like Terry (XTech Man). You may not like the answers you get, or the responses may make you feel a little uneasy but I'll guarantee he speaks from the heart. Old timers who have lived the sport and love it have a tendency of doing that. We need a whole lot more like Terry to step up to the plate and voice their opinions on the direction that Sportman Drag Racing needs to take if we all want it to stick around in the future. Here's the link to our thread. Share your memories. Thanks Terry from the gang over at.........
