Re: Lloyd Bray
I am sorry to see this.
Lloyd got me in to my first National event in Huston 1992. I had only one points meet at Dallas The week before.
He, Jason Line, D.G. and my self went in to the tower at Dallas and Lloyd told the Div. 4 director "Do you see these boys?, They are the future of NHRA!"
I guess 20 years down the road maybe he was correct.
I got to know quite a few good people through him.
He even came up to Minnesota one winter to ride snowmobile with us.
(That was quite an experience)
I went to his shop in O.K.& learned from him and D.G.how to work on carburetors and race engines. He taught me A lot, I will never forget him and his loud crazy laugh.
He was a true sportsman drag-racer!
For what it's worth he once told me this....
" Kid... drag racing isn't a hobby,..it's a way of life."
Condolences to D.G. and family.
R.I.P. Lloyd
