Being a relative newby here, I have not piped in here on any of the controversial subjects out of a healthy respect for the dues you all paid through the years while I was sidelined elsewhere. However on this subject I believe my experience with Irving Family Racing qualifies me to testify that both John and his son Jon are exactly the kind of people that you can be proud to call a colleague, competitor and if you're lucky a friend.

When I announced my return to Drag Racing in this forum last September the first offer of support and guidance I received was from John and his family, in fact upon learning of my need for a trailer John towed me one that Jon had built from Nevada to San Diego to help me out. Now I realize that most of you do not know me and therefore would probably be inclined to discount my position on this, but it is my humble opinion that when Wally was thinking about putting family first @ NHRA the Irving Family was exactly what he envisioned...

We are thankful and appreciative of everyone's
understanding in this matter.

BTW: The very next round I dialed him 3 to 4 hundreds faster than
the car could run so he would NOT have any reason to touch the brakes......period!
