But I do ponder-now at the late Dec. of my life. What if I would have put all the energy I did into drag racing into making $$$$$$$$$$$. :roll: :roll: :?: :?:
I've often wondered that myself, Jim... I sure have spent lots of time in drag racing research that I could have spent trying to make extra bucks... The richest people make getting rich their hobby... I just can't seem to shake this drag racing habit... :D bp

The number of individuals that have become rich as a result of drag racing are certainly in the minority of the bunch... That's pretty much a given... However, despite what characters like Donald Trump would want you to believe, the truth is that money really isn't everything in this life (yeah, it helps, but it's not everything)... As Homer Simpson once said to his billionaire boss, Monty Burns (Mr. Burns), "So let me ask you this, does your money ever hug you when you come home at night?"... "The Doc" (Celebrity Drag Racing Authority & Visionary)...
