    I attended my first dirt race in 1951 at the fair grounds in Birmingham...My last race was the ICE BOWL this past Sunday... I plan to attend East Bay for the Lucas oil races Wed-Sat this year...

    I have traveled all over the south watching some of the best racing in the country, my most memorial race was watching Freddy Smith win the Lucas Oil race at NAS, his last win at my all time favorite track... The 3 races I look forward to now is the North/South, Lucas Oil at the Magnolia Speedway, Columbus, MS and Easy Bay... The best part of the racing over years are the friends I have made, priceless...
    Think I’m gonna ease down to east bay for Friday and Saturday shows. Been a few years since I been to the Clay by the bay. I’ll look you up.

                  46 years old been married 20 years got a son age 17 and daughter age 12 live in North Ms almost on the Tn state line. Worked as a forklift operator for almost 20 years then had a 4 wheeler accident that broke my back and didn't even know it for years until I got to where I could barely walk. Took a few years off to get my health straightened out or at least to where I can do a little something when the arthritis and pain will let me got a good little part time job now with a construction/pipeline company as a equipment spotter. None of my family probably even knew what a race car was so I took up going to the races around north Ms and the north Alabama track because there was nothing else in Ms to do except watch grass grow or count pine cones and got addicted to dirt racing as a fan never got involved in actual racing other than bench racing. Don't really have a hometrack that we attend regular other than a couple bigger events at North Alabama and the Lucas race & Cotton Pickin at Magnolia but last few years have developed a passion for traveling the country to tracks I've never been too try to attend 2-3 new tracks each year. Favorite driver is Marlar and Owens but also root for Breazeale, Cook and Buckingham. If any of y'all ever see a 250 pounder with a ponytail and looks lost as a blind goose in a hailstorm it's probably me so stop me and say hello.

                    This thread is so cool. It reminds me of how the old 4m gatherings used to be. I met probably 50-60 4mers back then. Sadly, most of them stopped posting because of what 4m turned into. Many of the interesting posters in this thread, rarely post — that sucks. It’s just different now. It’s better than it was a few months ago, but not what it used to be. And that’s sad.
