Let me please say something. I have a real bad attitude because I have had a horrible life and it sort of has been a nightmare like Jimmy Owens has on his car. I like Jimmy and he is from the town that I was born in Newport Tennessee. He and Scott Bloomquist two are my favorite drivers and I even talked to Scott at the Gap last April as he was hot lapping setting up his car. I like Scott because he and I are a lot alike. Scott is a hard racer and he digs like you are supposed to keep a digging when you get behind because if you dont dig then you are a looser. Scott and Jimmy are not loosers by no means. I really dont mean to make you think bad things about me but I have been decease twice myself, after 911 of 01 they flew me by helicopter to Johnson City Tennessee. The helicopter was so bloody they had to wash it out with a water hose and the second time was in 2010 where I woke up in ICU in the Takoma Hospital. The doctors tell me that I am not even supposed to be alive much less be able to think but I am here for some reason or another. I guess the reason God let me live was so that i could take care of my elderly mom and dad i guess. We buried my brother Donnie in the 90s he got killed on a motorcycle and we buried one of my sister Debbie last July. The only family that I have left is my two elderly parents and one sister who lives in Newport Tennessee. I hope that someone one of you will help me stay alive so maybe I can help the sport maybe not die like I soon may do so I want to say that I have chronic stage 3 kidney disease, diabetes not to mention that I am going to have to have 2 more surgeries soon and I may die if I dont have them. I am a lot like what they say that our county that our that we live in Greene County that it is broke well so am I and I may be forced to sign off of the web. Let me also say that forever that I have been a servant going to the 2nd Harvest food bank Idle times food give away and any other food give away because not only I am living in poverty but my entire family is too. My elderly dad may not reach his 92nd birthday in May and my mom is fighting quilting every day and night so she keep her life. I have been wrong with the wrong attitude on my out look upon life and I know that I will eventually die so here is what I am going to say. Please let me servant to dirt track racing because I have always loved the sport and I dont want for it to die like we all will one of these days! I really dont know where you are from and around here when I go to the Volunteer Speed way in Bulls Gap Tennessee, I can be there in 10 minutes.From what I have heard Joe Loven who owns the Volunteer Speedway health is bad and there isnt much of a crowd coming to the races any more. I have good writing skills, have a lot of memories locked inside of my head of the races of where that I attended, plus I also know some of the drivers that are still alive beat banged and hammered on each other on the red clay high banks who were to me like gladiators of the weekends that I was able to go a witness the warriors at work. I am not saying that I am like Jesus Christ and can bring the dead back to life but could someone please help me so I maybe can help the sport of dirt track racing because I dont want to see it die. What I propose is for me to get all of the newspaper clippings pictures any kind of photograph scan them on my scanner and save them on my PC. Then we could make copies giving certain people what I call precious history of dirt racing that doesnt need to be lost forever! I know that I am going to die but I wander if someone will help me to save our sport before it goes down the drain forever! Thank you very much for reading this...
