Rich, let me tell you why we are loyal to Bob

4 years ago, Sunday June 14th, Rick Constable asked me to go to Numidia with him on a Sunday for Summit points race. I hadn't been to Numidia since the early 90's and my last time there/first time there I won "Heavy" Eliminator. Later that morning Rick and I are in the lanes and Bob came over and thank us for coming. Much to my surprise, Bob, knew my name, knew I had sold my Chevelle and knew I had bought the Firebird. I was surprised because frankly Bob and I never really talked back in the day when he raced at Island. Maybe a hello on occasion because he pitted across from us. Rick won that day and so did my son.

The point is Bob is a racer as well business man and truly appreciative of his racers/customers and from my observations, he treats everyone that comes in the gate like family. I know he has me and my son, quite the opposite of what I, he and many others experienced at island over a great many years.

Thank you again Bob and thank you Rick. Miss you buddy.
