On sunday at the starting line, I had the Great Oppertunity to go over and shake John Medlens Hand, I told him that he was one of the Strongest men I have ever known, He turned and gave me a hug, He said he knew who I was over the years and never really knew my name, I told him I had brought Erics first driving suit to pomona for the guys at Simpson, He said to come by the trailer after the race, I gave him a while after the great win and then went over to see him, Inside the trailer, He shook and Held my hand, Then Gave me a Photo Button of Eric, I told him I am going to wear it at out Nascar Grand National West race in Phoenix on thursday this week, I do the Fueling over the wall, Which Eric said,,Your Crazy Dude,, . Well, I know Eric Will be watching me and everyone there, John, When you read this, Your an Insperation to us all,. Thanks for being you. I can see where Eric got his Smarts and Personality
