History:
I am an auto mechanic (specializing in rebuilding carburetors) and have been
drag racing since 1968.
I started racing this car in 1974 with 350-300 2 bolt at York US 30 until track
closed in 1979.
I purchased this car in 1970 (original car wrecked in 1958). I have over 25
trophies won at Cecil.
I competed at every Super Chevy in < st1:place>Maple Grove from 1985 until the
present, taking two years off to replace rear that broke at Super Chevy in 2002.
I was runner-up at Super Chevy in 1985, and won fourth place at Geezers at the
Grove in 2007.
Favorite moment:
Won the National Dragster Challenge at Cecil County Dragway in 2008, and
brought home a Wally by running 10.504 seconds on a 10.50 dial.
