We all do it for different reasons but I would give my left one up to be there right now in the heat racing for bracket money. You see I figured out a long time ago money is no more than paper with green ink. And you can't take it with you when you go. But all those memories I have racing with friends are priceless. Patsy great job as always. Thanks for keeping us that don't have the time or the paper with green ink informed. Barry

Well said Barry. If you drag race just for the money you need to get out. In my 45+ years of being involved in the sport I have had the honor of meeting some very wonderful people. I am coming up on my 67th birthday and I cherish each moment that I can spend with friends at the track. Whether it is helping someone change a belt or a new set of slick, friends helping friends is a BIG part of what I enjoy doing.

Yes, it was nice when I won money drag racing, but the memories are much more valuable to me.

Patsy thank you so much for all the photos and commentary. It is like being there.
