Ron, to the best of my knowledge, Don is fine. He wasn't at the D1 race at Maple Grove last month, but while I was there I spoke to his engine builder Jim D' Amore and nothing negative was mentioned.

They had an oiling issue with the new engine. Should be ready for NMCA Norwalk & Indy.

Thanks Jody, at Norwalk Chris Holbrook mentioned that they may have encountered an issue with the new engine.

Thanks for the added info. I wasn't trying to imply anything, but as we all get older health is of prime concern. Things can change quickly as you age. I believe Don is in his eighties, if wrong I'm sorry.

Also, Don is a very busy guy. I loved seeing some his cars at auction recently.

Don is in his eighties. I'm 72 and I hope that I am as active as Don when I reach his age.

The Have's are widing the gap from the have not's! Unless NHRA can figure out how to pull in the reins which I don't believe they have the technologies to police this!
