Congratulations Venice

[Dick Kirkpatrick]

Venice, my young friend, the sign should say "gone racing"
Lorraine is the best wife a drag racer could have, I remember meeting her and her neighbour at Cayuga and all she could think about was getting up to the stands in time to see "her man|" make a pass and she said to me, come on, he is staging.
All true blue drag racers start out the same, they take some "dog" car to the track and cut their teeth and really thought their car was fast until they got their firs time slip.
Then the battle began, like, I know I can make this thing go faster.
We have all been there Venice, at least the real racers have, but very few can say what you can.

I am a national record holder.

We your friends, are all very proud of you.
