Nice story, thanks for sharing. Don't let my wife see that thing, she thinks I'm too old at 57.

HAHA, maybe she should. Seeing that, she would let you race until your 100.

After spending some time with our retired friends in a MH park in Florida last winter and watching the shuffleboard games, my wife and I decided we would be racing until we die!!!!

George Rupert is closing in on 90 years old, I think.
He can still get-r-dun with the best in the World.

First, I would like to thank this man for my freedom, he fought for a noble cause.

Second, I guess if I'm lucky I have a lot more years ahead of me but I doubt I'll equal his record

Race On!

I ran in to Tony Woods at the Tulsa track Friday night. He said his dad (former Super Stock world champ Delmer) is bracket racing again at age seventy-four. I think that is just great!
