I lost a friend:
Last night a good friend of mine Harmie Smith passed away.He was a long time drag racer who started out class racing back in the 60's and never got away from it.Older guys in div.4 may have remembered him from a Modified pinto compact he ran in the 70's to his w/s pinto wagon and w/sa mustang 2 he ran in the 80's and 90's. Recently he and I have been running a 82 Monte-Carlo in U/sa.He developed COPD in recent years and hadn't been able to drive so I've been running it off and on for the last few years.Harmie never gave up his love of drag racing and he often said that his car was what kept him going these last few years. I'll really miss him coming over and us spending hours talking about his car and ways to make it quicker.Godspeed my friend I won't forget you. Bill
