John, I don't know why you would think we don't get along. Just because we disagree on this point. I have purchased parts from you, talked to you at the track(been years though). I follow and root for You and Jr..and only wish you the best. This in no way was or is meant to create problems. I was just making a statement that in the old days, even in the pro ranks, fights happened and usually worse than this one.

Why do you not reread your post here (2/17) trashing me.
It has absolutely nothing to do with this particular post.

If you ever wish to discuss this matter.....I am available at Phoenix or
Tucson. I will PM you my phone number as well.

Edit: You do not accept PM = (702) 563 - 9255 is mine
Afternoons only please.

If I recall correctly, there was an incident at an IHRA event roughly 15 years ago that involved a couple of racers/crew in a physical altercation. I think a may have protest started it all. I haven't seen the racer that was involved ever since.

John, I did go back and read that post. You are correct, it was not intended, but did sound derogatory and I apologize to you mostly and also to anyone that read it. John is and always has been a stand up guy, a good family man and a damn good racer. I can only hope none of my words in the post effected him negatively. The post HAS been deleted!
