M.J., as much as I would like to take credit for/deny even knowing Michael, it was his Dad, Stephen, who taught Michael the ropes. And he did a much better job than I ever could have.

"Maybe you should go to the "Friday Nite Drags" sometime and see what's really going on. Maybe show a little interest in a kid (that's not yours) and offer him a little advice and help."
Been going to races for over 50 years and love the Friday nite grudge races, I have helped more racers than I can count with every aspect of a car. Maybe "hate" was a little harsh, I just prefer the sound of a V8. My wife being a retired high school teacher (44 years) I been around enough "kids" through the years to know where they're coming from. ________________ |

The KIDS like we were decades ago bought what they could and race it.
Today many of the cars they are interested in are not USA metal. You can ignore this new generation all you want.. Call them names or ricers or what ever. They will migrate to the Venues that will Invite them. Next 10 years will be a dramatic change in S/SS. You can already see the passing of friends on Class Racer. We rent this planet...how we leave it for others is our responsibility...! |
