      That's a story that's awesome to hear! Think that you are a proud dad hearing him talking all day of his experience. Nice of James and Kevin to get him to take a closer look of Ruby.
      Don't know how old your son is. But many racedrivers start with driving and compete in go-karts. Look up around where you live if you have such of a go-kart track. To see if your son likes. Just a friendly tips. And tell him at least in the past Cleetus drove go-karts with friends quite often with Jeremy from Fasterproms and the friends in the dragracing scene that where to visit. Think that they can start with Junior Dragracing quite young as well.

    James is so good at being careful, he has the discipline of a saint when it comes to lifting before the end of a 1/4 mile. He seems to be so in tune with what is happening in Ruby, I seriously can't think of anyone else who has this kind of connection with a car. If it was not for James I think Ruby would get beat up a lot more on these events. Hell yeah James!
