Damon I don't know that I know Ron Ferguson. I know Tom with the wagon and Jerry with the 65 Post -- but can't think of who Ron is. Did he run NSS?

Ron (tuning) and Mike (driving) won Nostalgia Super Stock Eliminator at last year's NHRA Hot Rod Reunion over a 38-car field in tough conditions of high heat and humidity.
At the track, he was always cheerful, optimistic and friendly with a playful sense of humor; the kind of guy you looked forward to spending time and sharing the event with.
Talking with Ron after that race, he was very happy and gratified with his accomplishment. I am glad he was able to have that experience.

Mike and his brothers and sons, were at the Hot Rod Reunion in Bowling Green. It's the first time they've ever raced without their dad.
They weren't coming, but decided Ron would have wanted them there.
Went out first round, but they were glad they came, and had a blast.
Was real good to see them.
Mikes little brother is scheduled to drive the car, for his first NSS race in Chandler.
Let's make all the young guys welcome next month ...... and show the young punks, the old guys still got it! :-)
