Default *Blaine Johnson*

I did a car show at Marc Christopher Chevrolet with my Jr. Dragster wayyyy back in the day, in early '96. The car show was with the "Big Guys" and the little kids, such as myself. I met "The Professor", but I'm not impressed with him, even to this day. I could care less. At the time, a legend in my mind was Blaine Johnson. He was there, and when I asked him for an autograph, I was shot down. He said, "I don't have time. I have to go watch the game". There was some big basketball game on, and all the guys were heading inside the show room to watch the game. None the less, I was only 11 years old... I was very disappointed. I may have been just one person, but I was a big fan of his, and he lost a fan that night.

I wish that were true. I stepped back from racing. I'm not racing anymore. I don't have a reliable crew, and I don't want to put anyone else that I am racing against, or myself, in a bad position, due to lack of a reliable crew.

I am hoping to get back into racing with 5 years or so, after I buy a house and get settled. I'm still young, and in 5 years I'll still only be 27. Hopefully by that time, I'll be able to get a good crew going on. So who knows.
