Bob Vandergriff returns !!

[my friends call me Zappy]

According to f/b he plans to race Top Fuel in Houston, Atlanta, and Denver, so far.
Welcome back & good luck BVR team.

I hope he does well and hopefully has a pretty stout sponsor package so he doesn't $hit the bed on the starting line like many are commenting on the other thread about Terry. I'd love to see him win just to see if he still has it in him to run on foot back to the starting line Helmet on of course.

if he won Denver I would make him take an oxygen bottle with him for that run

 

[ironpony]

I believe I read Valvoline is his sponsor

 

[Cliff]

He also said he'd be willing to put another driver in the car.

 

[vegasnitro]

I guess he wasn't able to sell his stuff, so why not drag it out, dust it off and make a few hits?

 

[Nitro Cane]

I thought he sold all his junk and walked away. Does this mean he has racecars ,parts, rigs etc?

 

[stitcherbob]

nitro....it's an addiction!

 

[Nunz]

It's an addiction but has to be treated like a business at this point, unless you're wealthy enough to run a big show car as a hobby. I always felt the sport needs Bob and more like him, he's always been able to bring new sponsors in and has an eye for the future. I'm encouraged that he's grooming his nephew to potentially take the butterfly,

 

[DrRocket]

Great news! I'd love to see him make another lap back to the starting line!
