Well Keith, I'll try and keep it short. In my mid teens, a friend and I went to Island Dragway in 1966 with the big kid in the neighborhood in his spanking new '66 Impala, big block 4 speed car. I would always watch any racing that I could find on TV and I would always get all of the magazines but that trip really did it.
My first run down the track? I went with another friend to watch and talked him into letting me race his '68 Volkswagen in A/S Volkswagen (yes, Island had two stock VW classes) and I won the trophy. Racing that VW might explain a few things!
