Default Re: COPO Pete decals & article

I was thinking of Pete this past weekend while cutting the lawn. Many memories came to mind, and as I pushed my lawnmower I tried to decide my best memory:

We were racing at Stanton, and Pete made a reference to Neal's L79 Nova &quot;.... stock? more like 'Pro Stock'!&quot;. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] We were racing at Gateway, I asked Pete about shifting tips, his response? &quot;Stop shifting like a granny, and you'll pick up a tenth or two!&quot;. I miss him.

Over the years I watched Eric and Owen spend time with Pete at the drag strip, and decided that I wanted that experience too - hence my foray into Jr Dragsters with my kiddies. I look forward to seeing Eric and Owen continuing on.

Would like to hear from others.....
