Default Re: R.I.P Grumpy Jenkins

This has depressed me all day long since I found out this morning. He was the Father of ALL things Chevrolet and all of us that Drag Race Chevrolet products will forever follow in his footsteps, whether you realize it or not. Yet another hero has passed onto another place and now this world will always feel just a little more empty without him. I'll sum it up like this . . . . . there's MANY people and their achievements that I respect but it's a VERY short list of people that I actually admire and would call a hero of mine. Mr. Jenkins, along with Smokey Yunick were at the very top of that list. Rest in Peace Grump.
