Most memorable NASCAR moment(s):

In the early 70’s, Benny Parsons visited our local dirt track in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, Atomic Speedway. My buddy and I where in elementary school and followed BP around like puppy dogs. Benny graciously allowed us to tag along – even going as far to call us his “bodyguards” to other folks who came for autographs and photos. Benny allowed us to hang out with him all evening and was always a gentleman. BP will always be one of my heroes because of the way he treated two young race fans that evening. Thanks BP – God rest your soul.

Marital status:

My wife and our 5 children love NASCAR racing and other sports especially University of Tennessee VOLS football. We enjoy grilling and barbecuing and all endeavors that our kids choose to be involved with. Love watching the races in HD on the big screen when I’m not there.
