He was a FRUGAL racer for sure ! :-)
I believe he had some half brothers that raced also,seems like one was Brian Pierson.
I can't remember the others name right now.
Yep, and I remember his living conditions were under budget too...lived with Jim "Clean" Martin for a couple years, at least what I remember when I lived in Long Beach
