Got to start going with my Dad when I was 2 years old He ran modified at Bluegrass Dragway in Lexington Ky. and Mountain Park Dragway in Clay City Ky. He had 66 Chevelle ran E-F gas then built 67 SS/RS camaro that ran H/G had 292 sbc with Crower injection. he had to quit in 1974 I was one heatbroke 7 year old every Sat&Sun when we were'nt racing anymore it was all I had done as long as I could remember.I still remember the sound of that 292 @ 9200 and 40 pound flywheel on the way back down.He still has the Camaro and 292 shortblock and injection.
Dad would'nt let me go to track when I got my license finally in 1986 when I was 18,a bunch of my friends went,I could'nt go my nova street car was apart I was repainting it I had rearended a car,but next Sunday I had it back together in primer and went,I told Dad I just wanted to see what it would run,because he did'nt want me to go,he give me every excuse he could come up with from exagerating how much it would cost me to go to track or any other myth he could think of ,all because he knew I went I'd be hooked and he would'nt be able to stand it.
I did'nt miss a race after that for 3years,Dad was building a new race car within about a month after I started.I wanted to be drag racer as far back as I can remember.
