After he wrote the ticket he told me to follow him to my grandfathers house because he knew that I was not going to tell him that I got caught drag racing thru the middle of town. Its after midnight when he woke my grandfather up and after that conversation my grandfather walked out to me and told me he would not have that conversation again and that could park the car right there in his yard and hand him the keys. I worked for him at the time in a garage that he owned and I had to open up the next morning made me walk home that night and ride a bicycle to work and the bus to school for the next month. I want to say I quit street racing but I never got caught again. I will never forget that night or him. He is still to this day one of the greatest men I have ever known. Wish I still had him and that 66 GT 390
