X-Tech, you are correct. Seeing these slides brings back a lot of memories. I was thinking of a conversation Ronnie Sox, Bobby Warren and myself had one night at the reunion in Henderson. We were talking about the amount of equipment and everything involved in drag racing now and the amount of money involved. Ronnie commented that all of the money that sponsors spend that the car owner has to answer to all of those sponsors. He said "there is no way that the drag racers today can enjoy racing as much as we did, even though we raced, in most cases three or four times a week in all different locations hauled everything in a truck."
