Photo is a little dull in color because it is very mature! Always have had that spark to make things work well and perform Top Notch. This was from my old Drag Racing days at Wasa BC. Back then it was a 2 day event. We cleaned up and beat every car on the strip to earn the title King Of The Hill. Mike Scarpelli, John Scarpelli and myself, Al Komarevich. Those were the days!!!
