Conversations With A Champion

Larry Hill · 09-05-2023, 05:04 PM

Today was a fix it day for us and our NRC motor home. We got the refrigerator and the Gen set working.

While waiting for the generator guy to look at the genset I noticed this this beautiful long motor home, NRC of corse, and noticed a folding wheelchair on the curb side. On the way back to my motor home I see a man in a wheelchair and stop to compliment him on his motorhome. Instead of the compliment I blurted out “ Your Darrel Gwynn’s” we talked for over an hour about racing, NHRA, Payouts, car count, and how each category needs to race three rounds on finals day. It’s a day I’ll never forget until I get really old.

I've seen Darrell interviewed at races, he seems like a good fellow and that is cool you got to meet him like that.

Darrell and the entire Gwynn family are some of the most sincere and kindest people anywhere! Glad that you got to visit with him. Glad to call the Gwynn’s our friends.
