Title: My World
Post by: bud on February 07, 2013, 07:17:08 AM
Hi Guys
To give you a little rundown on me and what I like to do,
 I started Drag Racing in AUG,1959 and havnt look back, I like Building as well driving dragsters,
Been married for 50 years now and my other wife ( FMD) for 54 years so the first one that runs the household
Knew what she was getting into. lol 
I didnt start saving pictures till about 25 years ago so I dont have a lot to show except some people have 
taken in years pass but your welcome to see them .  at :  www.buds-motorsports.webs.com/
and I have some on you tube  : http://www.youtube.com/user/budssupere?feature=mhee
I don't race much anymore, Im to old to train a new pit crew every time I go to the track and to poor to hire
one.lol
But I still enjoy getting to take the car to a Crackle fest or two whenever I can.
Bud

Well I'm not that lucky my wife goes to the shopping center when I go racing. lol When I lived out in Calfornia my son would get a couple of his buddy and they would crew for me, but about 12 years ago I Retired and move to missouri and needless to say he didnt. So I'm on my own. But as the saying goes the apple dont fall to far from the tree my Son Tim holds the worlds speed record for model elect dragsters and now is trying to get 200 mph with a single cell dragster.I think I have a Pic of him I see if I can find it and show you.

He won more and spent less than I ever have on racing.
