Oh no. This is becoming the sad season.
Pat did some 283 SS head work for me , per Joe Kenny's advice.
Joe's 283 wagon ran well, and convinced me. Nice work
RIP , my friend

Sad to hear this news. Pat did a lot of head work years ago for many of us Stock and Super Stock racers. Including myself and my brother. Always a great guy to talk to. Barry

[Very sad news. Pat was a great competitor and person. I first met him at Utica Rome Dragway back in the 70s.

RIP Pat

As many of you already know, Pat was a mainstay at Dover Drag Strip in the 60’s and 70’s racing in the Modified Eliminator ranks and also at Lebanon Valley with the likes of Bill Casey of “Super Pumpkin” fame, Tom Iorizzo, The Mad Frenchman, Clem LaChance, Fred Egloff, Al Hofmann, and Bob Newberry just to name a few with his “Six Fiend“ Camaro. Always enjoyed it when he would line up against Clem’s Ford H/MP and they would go at it heads-up. My condolences to his wife Maya and his family . May his soul be at peace with our Lord above.
