Yes Its True! After last night & looking the car over this morning, I am officially retired! Not the way I really wanted to end it but hey thats racin'.
I'd like to thanks my crew Brian & Phil for all the great help this year. All my family for their neverending support.
Sponsors: Carter-Maxwell Goodyear, J&M Marine, Perfection Equipment, Sonic of Yukon, Baker's Starter & Alt., Nick Oil & Gas Leasing, West Impressions Photography & Posey's Auto Center, Ada! Without these people I'm sure I'd have been done a few yrs. ago.
If anyone needs any parts or anything let me know, after 20 yrs., I'm sure I may have what you're looking for! As soon as I can get geared up to start building bodies I'll post it here. Had a few ask about them last night!
Thanks to all the fans over the years, whether they cheered or boo'ed, hey they are race fans & thats all that matters!! Been some places & met alot of people that I'll never regret doing this racing thing!! Theres been good times & bad times but life is that way right? And I guess the 2 worst times involved in my racing career has been the loss of my Dad & the loss of Harold Leep!
I'll still be around racing. Can't just walk away from it completely. Thanks to everyone for a great 20 yrears!
