After breaking an engine [AMC back then] the first day of a Maple Grove divisional race I went home and thrashed an engine together out of whatever I had .
When I got back the next day ,I was pitted next to Paul Thimm and Kevin Robb . Jenkins was there with them and casually walked by my car and said, How many spare AMC bullets do you have ?
Bill's unwitting contribution to my racing program !

Let's not forget all the "Grumpy's Toys"!
