Colin, you must be quite the history buff, your not old enough to have seen Al race. What is missing?

I miss seeing Al Hoffman and John Force on the track. Epic battles on TNN tv with Steve Evans interviewing in the shut down area.

Watched him on the Mountain in the early 2000's when I was just a 10 year old kid...

He's missing some nitro

First time I saw Al Hoffman I thought there was a bowling league somewhere missing a bowler. He was quite a guy.

Time marches on. Glad I had the chance to see them both compete on the track against each other several times. Wayne does a great job honoring his dad. Saw him this year in the Western Auto car at a nostalgia event in New York. Looked grsat ran hard and he's a mice guy too.

How about his mom! I see her name (Helen) on the front of the car. She was a fierce competitor. And a good crew member

Tommy passed away many years ago, way too young. He was a brilliant guy.
