Bad guys not only on the coast
Hey Larry. If you have a chance, perhaps you could let your followers know that
the bad guys are alive and well in Alberta too.
Our trailer was broken into on Monday night, and the bad guys made off with my
/20 nitro rated, fire suit / jacket / pants/ helmet / gloves, , belevalclava,
boots ect. . Also taken was our lap top computer, weather station, team
uniforms, many tools and many parts. The funny car was at our race shop so it
lived through the robbery.
They did a real nice number on my old ' Burban which was hooked to the trailer.
Seemed they couldn't get it to fire... so they made it pay...........
The stuff can all be replaced. It's just stuff. But it's OUR stuff,
and........... man ..................this JUST SUX!..........................
The worst part is I had a good luck pendent in the fire suit
pocket,................... that my wife gave me A LONG TIME AGO! It's been with
me for every pass I have made in the last 18 years.
We have a booking at Saskatoon this coming up weekend, and folks have been
coming out of the wood work to get us up and running for the tracks big Alky
funny race. Thanks to all those who have helped out. I may look like a patchwork
quilt out there, but the Prospector WILL be running, and running well despite
the bad guys best efforts!
p.s........ Dear Bad guys.......
should you happen to show up in a night club or elsewhere, wearing one of our
crews uniforms........ well, ..................it's at your own risk............
my crew guys REALLY miss them.
Thanks again Larry!
