I hadn't been to Numidia since the early 90's and my last time there/first time there I won "Heavy" Eliminator. Later that morning Rick and I are in the lanes and Bob came over and thank us for coming. Much to my surprise, Bob, knew my name, knew I had sold my Chevelle and knew I had bought the Firebird. I was surprised because frankly Bob and I never really talked back in the day when he raced at Island. Maybe a hello on occasion because he pitted across from us. Rick won that day and so did my son.
The point is Bob is a racer as well business man and truly appreciative of his racers/customers and from my observations, he treats everyone that comes in the gate like family. I know he has me and my son, quite the opposite of what I, he and many others experienced at island over a great many years.
Thank you again Bob and thank you Rick. Miss you buddy.

Ed, who didnt know you? You were the friggin big mouth that was shattering the records for getting thrown off every drag racing message board in the country. Everyone knew who you were...lol.
Anyone that has never been to Numidia should try. Its a great experience. I would of never come back to the sport if it wasnt there. Like Bobby said, stop and introduce yourself to him, you will be happy you did. I have never met anyone so willing to help out people. The big dude is one of the best people you will ever meet. Glad to call him a friend. Just wish I could of won a round or 2 when I drove for him...lmao.
