He was a Ford genius and if it breathed blue it went fast. He even helped those roundy round guys go fast too. We are losing many of our most talented racers from the engineering aspect of our sport that were prolific in discovering ways to make the ordinary drag car do unbelievable things. Today's drag racers are almost hog tied in their efforts as they have to use this tire or that setting and aren't allowed to think outside of the box. Rest in peace Mr. Glidden. :(
