I am a commercial construction superintendent and work about 60 hours a week and most of the time I am out of town working all week. No retirement in sight for me yet. Everything is just too expensive and I am not ready to give up on racing and traveling. i plan to battle this old age thing for as long as I can.

Mike I'm sure you must remember the great D2 open races in December at Montgomery back in the day. Perfect record setting opportunities and that is where I got my one and only record for D/SA in 2004. Rusty Johnson and I were up until 3 AM putting that thing back together, and there must have been 15+ records set at that one event. Tech got a workout on those weekends for sure. Even Bill Holt was measuring valves and looking at ports.
