His battles with “the professor “ Warren Johnson were classic. No love loss in their relationship.

Well, for the third anniversary of his passing, RIP. Watched him battle Lee Shepherd many times at the Mile High Nationals.

His battles with “the professor “ Warren Johnson were classic. No love loss in their relationship. His earlier battles with Bill 'Grumpy' Jenkins were even more fierce. They literally ushered in modern prostock. I remember as a kid those guys finally getting into the '8's.... Epic Summer night memories for me with a drag racing father.

He was by far my favorite Pro-stock driver. Watched him 3-4 at BIR as a kid and of course on TV.

This is OLD OLD OLD NEWS - from 2017 RIP Bob ! Couple of months ago I pondered that I hadn't heard anything out of John Lingenfelter - Lingenfelter Corvettes , he was building BIG HP Corvettes back in the 80's . He was killed in a practice run in 2017. Two weeks ago I pondered why I hadn't heard anything of Nicky Hayden motorcycle racing champion from Owensboro , KY. , met and stood around talking to him and others at Daytona 200 . Nicky was killed while training cardio on his bicycle in 2017 , hit by a car . Rest in peace fellows ...

RIP, I remember when his son ratted on him for cheating, lol they all do. he was filling his tube chassis with nitrous and had a tube in the scoop that would mist it into the carb, good for a tenth.
