[DeTomaso] Stroker madness / Kickin the Dawg

Fire-up? That is a very interesting question Dave. When I purchased the
P-car it was because I knew that
Dawg (the guy that kept catching on fire) and D-mann's exploits would fit me
well. Now more than a decade later I have a little less piss and vinegar in
me. Still, a 200 mph blast on the way to the store seems like a reasonable
goal but not the driving force it once was. Over the years the friends I
have made through this car have been the most valuable part of the
adventure.  

Lately I have had the honor of watching my son grow into a young man of 13
years. We are in the shop nearly every day working together to make parts
for our company. I just can't wait to be building a car with him. I'm not
sure when the fire up day will finally be. Mostly I just want to stretch it
out and enjoy every moment.

All my best,
Nolan
