I remember him slugging it out with Jenkins, Dyno Don and the others at Connecticut Dragway, when they had match races.
Name on the car window read "Rotten " Ronnie Manchester.
He had "Game " .
Prayers for his family.

RIP. Saw that Monza at New England many times. He was one of the good ones.

I am so sad to hear this, I was at his shop in November and spent a few hours with him, glad I did. He was a very interesting character, excellent machinist and engine builder, and once a great competitor.
God speed Ronnie, you'll be missed by many.
