    Yep, I saw you there. Next time you are at a Goodguys race, please stop in the tower and say "HI". I'll be one of the old guys with the mic in my hands. I'll be at Sears Point for Goodguys, April 23-24, oh um I guess it's Infinion now. Heck, it will always be the point.

    I gotta start putting faces and cars together. I ran into a guy at work Thursday, that by name I have known 15+ years. Never seen him outta his car or without a helmut on.

    Maybe we can post a photo of us with our cars here?

    I do it all, but sometimes we have guest announcers. There are 2 staff guys. Myself and John Madijasic.

    When the mood is right one of the other Goodguys staff does Top Fuel. I was also the regular guy at LACR from '77-'97. Did the street legal drags a few times for Pomona and for the last 5 years the Cal. Hotrod Reunion.
