Thank You to all for the kind words. I have been helped out countless times by racers and I truly appreciate it.

When you are asked on a stage if there is anyone you would like to thank, you miss quite a few! So here is a more comprehensive list:

Thank You to:

The fans for coming out to support New England Dragway with a sellout, fans in the stands make all the difference.

The shareholders of New England Dragway for voting to keep this a viable race track and not sell out for a warehouse/Industrial project.

My wife for tolerating this pursuit, its like Don Quijote running at the windmill, my children for all the race trips I dragged them on starting in 2008, the beagles, the late Mr. Beasley who the truck is named after and my most frequent racing partners, Bruno and Belle(rip) the beagles

The Street Eliminator racers at New England Dragway I started with who schooled me on a regular basis: Bob Smith, the Coco’s, Kyle, Steve George, Dan Cassie(yes the world champ)

The New England Dragway staff especially the tech and starting line crew, the office staff, Travis, the fuel shack guys and gals.

All the D-1 techs, and Director Dave Mohn, and Bob Lang who first allowed me to double enter a stock/superstock combo at Napierville.

Other Tracks and their staffs especially Lebanon Valley, Howard, Wayne, Susan, the Brunet family at Naperville a great track with great grip, and fans everywhere, Atco, Maple Grove, Indy, Toronto, Maramichi with its fans all the way down the ¼ mile on the fence,Numidia, galot, Bristol, skyview, piedmont, Indy and Etown(rip)

Camping World and the NHRA for bringing the event to Epping

All the companies whose products I run. Special thanks to Mopar/Direct Connection for the support over the years. Engine assembly, intake, valve covers. Amalie oil and Transmission oil, Fast Fuel Injection, Hoosier Tires(shout out to Roy for always installing the tires just right)Jegs, Summit, VP fuel, Strange Axle,ATI convertor(Thank you Jim for everything you do), Comp Cams, Pac springs, manley rods,MSD, A&A Trans, Jr1, Miloden(your pan get a lot of air time on this truck), Banks Chevy in Concord NH, and GAS Tom Goldman.

Stratham tire for keeping the trailer and RV well shoed, and allowing for drama free trips to and from the track

Goldrush Trailers

Mike Roth at MR2 Performance not only did he convert the truck into a GT truck a stocker, he did the tune that made it flip! He also built the dragpak.

Tom Goldman can’t say enough here about my friend who has been critical in the trucks ability to recover from Jockey mishaps. At the track repairs Thank You Tom!

Bob Broadbent who can fix just about anything.

The wisdom and advice from the champs over the years Fletcher, Iacono, Santangelo, Lamb, Bogacki, and Biondo. Every word is absorbed.

Nhra Tech and Lonnie

So many racers I can’t list them all.

Last but not least, the past and present members of the All Stars Racing Association. Its how I got started in class racing.
