Sorry to hijack.But reading about Sonny Ray got my attention.I happen to grow up in the same town.He was friends with my parents.When I was a kid I used to hang around his shop,sweep the floors,clean parts,wash the cars from time to time.Still remember the day he got the G.T.O. Judges(one of em Rampy won his 1st national driving).Was fun getting to hang around him,Clark Davis (Barry's dad,who's Rampy crew cheif) ,Red Ford,and Ronnie Traffensted.Learned alot.I remember the times at Green Valley in Glencoe Al in the late 60's,early 70's. Even today,at 54 yrs old I'm still involved in drag racing,going from track to track as an event starter/official.Owe alot to Sonny and those guys.Even today when I go home to visit the family, one of my first stops is Rambo's shop,see how everybody's doing.
