Pam,

Thank God you were around and did the right thing. I'm not sure Jenkins would have gone on his own, so every race fan owes you a huge debt.

The time I got to hang out with Bill back in the 90s remain one of the best things that ever happened to me. His wisdom, insight, and brilliance stay with me to this day. The guy tells some pretty funny stories, too.

Please give him my best regards and best wishes for his return to good health.

Re: Grump

Grump, hate to see anyone suffer but this could be the best thing for you, luck is on your side, a great thanks to Pam and Hubby being there at the right time. Do what the doc's tell you and you'll be back on the dyno in no time, heck i bet you'll find them precious hundredths to get you back in the winners circle. Well from all the tube car fanatics out there get well soon and we'll see ya at the starting line.

Re: Grump

You are literally a lifesaver Pam. Thank you and your husband for saving one of the all time best.

Get well soon Mr. Jenkins. Glad the docs were able to relieve some HP robbing "oil restrictions". You know how to make true power, please keep yours going as well.

Re: Grump

How cool is this... One of the icons of drag racing, Jungle Pam, probably saving the life of another icon, Da Grump. Then taking a minute to tell us about it. A heartfelt thanks Pam!
