Silly Season Why do you Race?

I grew up at the track. Some of my earliest memories are playing around on my dad's homemade trailer at Dragway 42 while he raced an AHRA record holding "stock" VW Bug that ran high 16s. Playing in the dirt near the world's worst restrooms at Norwalk in the 70s, always watching my dad race and win with slow, ugly, oddball cars. I love this sport, and though I announce far more than I race now, I hope to always be involved in this sport somehow til they throw dirt on me. Drag racing is truly intertwined into who I am.
