Bob Shaw is a bad man

Bob Shaw is bad to the bone. And a gentleman.

As a part owner of an ex-Bob Shaw race car that has been torn down several times, it is fun to see so much controversy about a racer who does so much with OEM parts.

Isn't that what stock - at it's purest level - is all about?

I wonder how much fun Bob Shaw might have if NHRA had a Pure Stock class?

Bob Shaw won't win the NHRA Lucas Oil World Championship this year. Somebody else will. And they will deserve to win it.

But there will only be one world champion, and for class racing to prosper, we need a lot of Bob Shaws - and a lot of guys who want to be the World Champion.

I respect them all.
