The golf course? I went red .003 in the first round against Arnold and had the pleasure of meeting him and his wife, incredibly nice folks. That iron head Camaro is VERY impressive.

Arnold is very close friend. He does have the car sold to a very nice guy from I think Little Rock. I can tell you that more was in the car. Arnold has said to me that he and Lynn want to travel some and that he is not going to try and compete with the new factory cars. One good thing about it, he will have plenty of time to do some of those Bad A** 396 engines for his friends.

Years ago, in Denver, I listened as Mr Greene lamented the deteriorating state of NHRA class racing and tech; he later made a tough choice of exiting his hobby of choice in protest of the unfairness he observed. Back? or Final Farewell? Regardless, best wishes from your midwest friends

Arnold already paid a price by standing up for what he thought was right, by boycotting Division 2 because he felt Bill Holt mistreated him and his fellow racers. So now he's selling his car and getting out, not because he tired of his hobby, but because he feels he's been abused. And he's right. But he's being robbed again, now he's out of his hobby when he has the most time possible to actually enjoy it. That's the saddest part of all. Except for the fact that NHRA, and many of the "new" people in this sport, don't give a damn, and feel it was time he quit and let the "new" people and cars play. And that sentiment is exactly what is wrong with not only our sport, but our culture and our nation.
