Yup that's the one. I heard of him kickin' *** with that 289. I guess he knew how to race for sure. He was from Stephenville Crossing. Boy small world isn't it!
Going out to stephenville was my very first exposure to drag racing. I've been hooked ever since. I SWEAR I can still hear him banging through those gears.
Used to be lots of nice cars around that part of the rock.
