I was never a Geoff fan. I gained a lot of respect for him after he took his stock car experience and applied it to bobsled design and manufacturing.

I still have a Bo Dyn Bobsled jacket when they did a fundraiser with Dave Blaney at Charlotte. All of us that contributed got our name on the car and a jacket. Here's the proof!

I should have posted this yesterday. He passed away in August due to a medical event at Anderson Speedway.
He won multiple track championships at GPS, I think he was a six time champion.
RIP # 97 Marty Ward.

96 Ford Gene Morgan Hobby class 1972 or 1973.jpg


From 1972 or maybe 1973, Hobby class cars at Greenville Pickens.
I was 10 or 11 years old and I remember these cars.

The # 96 is a 1958 Ford driven by Gene Morgan. He would go on to win the snowball derby a few years later on.

So many great drivers that inspired us through the years.
So many things I dont know, I just hope the kids today are getting the same inspiration.
I feel like I got to see the greatest show in the world. I wish I could do it again.
 
Can't wait. Thinking 10 Toyotas in the field. LFG.
