------Although I havent seen Bob for several years now I am priveleged to call him my friend. He is absolutely one of the top ambassadors in the world for drag racing, and along with that one of the nicest guys on earth. I crewed for him for a couple of years at the Hot Rod Reunion in Bakersfeild and had an absolute blast. You wouldnt believe all the skunk-works type projects he has been involved in. He was one of the primary builders of the twin engine blown 442 as well as many, many others. I know Ill miss seeing him run, and if you havent you have really missed something very special.
