I met Drag Racer Joe Jacono tonight, Rollin' Stoned !!

[Plum Crazy]

I went to the Delaware County(PA) Sports Hall of Fame dinner to accept an award for my dad
and Joe Jacono was there accepting one as well.
Very cool! He's getting his drag racing license at 71!! [smilie=e:
The guy who bought his old car
contacted him 2 years ago and it got drag racing back in his blood. [smilie=e:

And here's Joe accepting his award. It was the first time a drag racer was inducted. [smilie=bunny.gif]

And here's his 'Cuda!

cool,

Year ago I met a Harley Davidson drag racer named Ed McClure, age 65.
That was 10 years ago(approx)
FASTEST HD.
Was a real honor to meet him and his wife.
I kind of idolize him for what he was doing at that age , and I hope to be that vigouros at that age .
He passed away a bit ago

Some people get old before they are old.
I think those are the same ones that keep tellin me to grow up.

well then, to them [smilie=e: [/b]
