Paul, you are absolutely right. I made my 1st pass down a drag strip in 1970. I have had many cars that I raced since then. The friends that I have made along the way are priceless. Some I have known for over 40 years and, yes, some have passed on. I have won some money and several trophies, but the friends are worth MUCH MORE. I met one of my friends 48 years ago and I went to his 90th birthday party last September and we greeted each other like old friends should - a big hug and big smiles.
