speed
A A record. I was a fan of Craig Breedlove and his Spirit of

years ago
A A (20?) I jumped over the velvet rope around the car in the
Chicago
A A Science Museum (great place) so I could touch it. Art Arfons
and his
A A Green Monster was down in Akron 30 or so miles away from me,
but as a
A A kid it may as well been on the moon.
A A In the 80's I had a customer by Arfons shop in Akron, (small
and low

was
A A putting helicopter turbines in tractor pulling rigs, I think.
But still
A A hallow ground for me to be on.
A A If you remember any of this you will enjoy this video made back
in the
A A day.
