Whether it is helping someone change a belt or a new set of slick, friends helping friends is a BIG part of what I enjoy doing.
Yes, it was nice when I won money drag racing, but the memories are much more valuable to me.
Patsy thank you so much for all the photos and commentary. It is like being there.

In my limited travels, I have to reflect on the fact that I've met many outstanding people, had some real fun races and rounds of competition, gone to some fun races, seen many great things, and have come to the conclusion that there's no way to put a price on the times I've had,the races I've been to and the people I've met. Money can't buy everything,least of all that. It does make it possible to compete however, so those other blessings can be accessed.
