Red goes back a long way. Loved sitting around listening to the stories.

Back in 2000 "Red" and I ran neck and neck for the GLSCS Boat Whore award, he won by racing in 4 differant boats the same season to my 3. That was a great party.

For anyone that cares or is interested. I am currently good friends with Red, He just won his 50th checkered flag, throttling Crazy Rythm in the St Clair Riverfest On 7/28/24. He was also inducted into the Michigan Motorsports Hall of Fame November of 2023.
