Met Gene Winfield at Bonneville this year. The organizers were pissed because Gene went beyond the short couse top allowed speed of 150 the first day and clipped the traps at a very healthy 205 in his slim little '32.Spent some time talking with him one night at the state line casino rod show. What a great guy. He made time for everyone who came around to see him. He's in amazing shape for any age and always wore a great big smile.
Cheers to you Gene! Here's to many more years with the throttle down.
