Say it ain't so!!! Woody ain't old enough. Me & Big Stuff and the famous Dog (Country, Puppy, Nother, and all the Dogs of Jimmy Hildago) can't stand the loss.

Thanks Guys for all the kind words, yes, i wish it wasn't so too, but the time has come, oh believe me, it's a hard thing to swallow. There is no one that ever loved Stock and SuperStock more than i have, i went to bat for us on rules time and time again. Some times NHRA listened and sometimes they didn't, so now i am sure they will like it if i am not around. As the saying go's, i gave all! Good luck to all and Thanks!

Good luck to all of you that can continue racing, i will be pulling for you!"

I don't have to tell you what a legend Woodro is in the sport of Drag Racing. From his early days to driving MoPars with the Barnett's and Steve Bagwell to owning and running his own machine shop that turned out some of the quickest GM Stockers ever known to man! Woody is a member of the NHRA Division 2 Hall Of Fame and is as well known as any in this sport. I for one am honored to call him my friend and will miss seeing him and his wheel standing Firebird at the races. Hopefully he won't be a stranger and we will still see him walking through the pits talking with all his friends. Jim
