Curtis do you know the man from OK with the 66 Impala? He was there also last year. Even had a blower car running foot brake. 62, I think, Tempest from Kansas. We sponsor the best winning and losing packages and bad luck award. Maybe thats why I got mentioned. Or maybe they wanted me to shut up. Me Steve Riggens and JJ had a good time in the booth. I must mention Paige Hamlin for retrieving my car keys from between the console and the seat. If not for her I might still be there. She does a h=ell of a job helping run the show.
Fern, I'm not sure about the OK guy. '66 Impala doesn't ring a bell though.

Floyd StaggsMornin y'all.
You guys on the east side probably didn't know him but Mark Kirby, a stock and superstock owner and driver passed away yesterday from cancer. He had the Grape Ape and the Wicked Stiches cars.
I've known Mark for years. We raced the Heritage Series together.
God speed and may he rest in peace.

50fordsstWhat a great person he was. I've been a friend for 45 years. He bought his first race car from me in '79. A 1969 Dodge Dart Swinger which was my first. I still remember the smile on his face when he pulled out my driveway with his new toy on a trailer. RIP

Floyd StaggsI met him in his garage in Bellflower, i think.
He had the car up for sale and we went to look at it.
