Default Alex

Alex Denysenko "the wild Ukranian" has passed. Knowing he was a Christian should give us all comfort. How he got a reg 289 not even the hypo to run tens with an automatic is beyond me. He loved his Fords, but as he told me he was a Pontiac guy at heart as his older brother raced 421SDs for years. He was very instrumental in helping me launch the Pontiac RAV program www.ramairv.com He knew the old guys at Ford Racing who developed the Tunnelports. He explained the whole story and some unique info critical to our many successes. He emphasized how they discovered this technology worked and how much they were committed to it. Among many others, they won Nascar with it. It was when the Buckie Knudsen took Ford over that killed 12 years of R&D. We collaborated on many things where and why Ford had difficulty. My best memory was rooting for him sybsequently taking #1 qualifier at Martin against our rival followed by me putting the same guy on the trailer first round. We high fived in the staging lanes although I had to send Alex packing 3rd round. He said "I knew that black ugly Pontiac was comin!" He was a tough guy but a good friend. McCartys will miss him.
