For those unaware, the two fastest pro teams will be running side by side at the NHRA Midwest Nationals in St Louis. Ok...that's a big deal. However, it's a gigantic thing for me.
My father passed away a week ago yesterday. He was an NHRA gas racer in M & I Gas in the late 60's until 75.
John Robinson has graciously agreed to place a little of dad's ashes in his parachute so my old man can have one last fast pass. Hoping that Dan Scheid will allow some in his as well. Hell....dad might be racing himself.
Cannot say thanks enough to my buddy John Robinson. This means the world to me, my brother and my mother.
My dad's car still exists....it was found about 10 years ago, restored and sold to a VW gasser collector in Scotland.
