I'm merely posting this for Bob W, to share some of the conversation surrounding drag racing that he and Dr Crankenstein (Kim/Vern) have had in the past that he wanted to share. Please see the attached photo.

(The blacked out part is his birth year, not my place to share that)

I like his way of writing a lot. Thanks for posting. Too bad he`s not around to ad some live comments to this thread...
 
waiting for the next chapter .. seems Dr C and i grew not so young during similar times..
hope hes back soon .....
 
I'm also looking forward to the 'rest of the story'.
You know how I usually tell you guys about a really neat picture that I almost took. Well, here's another one. At a car show tonight, I saw a friends orange Model A that he used to race with, all over western Canada. I took a picture, then went around the back to get a picture of the BUCKSHY license plate that was on there, and that Dr. Crank also related to, through racing. I knew he'd want to see it. Steve, my friend is retiring from racing somewhat, so his little brother took over the license plate, and Steve has an ordinary, boring, legal one on the back now. So, I didn't take a picture of it, but it was close.

Cool to read the story, Doc and I have talked lots about his experiences on the phone. We are about 10 years apart but grew up in similar cities and did the same stupid things in cars.:rolleyes:
 
Great story, thanks for sharing. I'm looking forward to the next installment, and hoping to hear from the good Dr. as well.
