Re: Bobby DeArmond Article
Bobby and Gary are not just great racers, but also outstanding individuals, true ambassadors who represent the sport in the best manner possible. It's great to see them continue to get the recognition.
Both Bobby and Gary have been quick to offer advice over the years, not just to me but also to others I know as well. Jimmy Bridges has a great story about Bobby. When Bobby's car broke at Orlando, Jimmy gave him some tie down straps to help secure the broken car in the trailer better, in order to prevent further damage on the trip home (Jimmy said he was not going to see that great car get beat up a bit further, when Bridges says you have a great car..). Bobby had Jimmy's tie downs back to him almost before Jimmy got back to his shop in Tennessee after the race. Says a lot about a man when he pays more than the straps cost new just to see that Jimmy got his spare straps back ASAP.
