Legend Bill "Grumpy" Jenkins

Sad news from Maple Grove Dragway Manager Lex Dudas. We lost another "Legend" today.
Bill "Grumpy" Jenkins passed away this morning.
Heaven Dragway is sure getting a full field.

Sad news to hear the passing of another legend. I still have his "small block bible" and follow his tips every time I assemble a SBC. Rest in peace Bill......
