Brief
History: I have been racing for 22 years. Still have a couple of
55 Chevy's (one belongs to Helen) that I ran up until the year 2000 when I
switched to the dragster. I have a 69 Class Car Corvette and 2 Drag
Motorcycles. Sometimes I drive a 63 Corvette for Hendersonville Heating
and Air Conditioning Co. that runs 5.30's @ 130 mph.

Bob Glidden and Warren Johnson.
Most
Memorable Moment in Drag Racing: Last race in Helen's 55 Chevy I won
the Winston World Title Race. I also won the first American Red Cross Drag
Bike Race.
