The founder of the NHRA, Wally Parks, passes away

A legend has left this world, and we were blessed to have met him. Wally Parks, the driving force behind the NHRA has died at the age of 94. The NHRA has a more in depth announcement. Last spring, we had the opportunity to meet Wally, and I remember then thinking that once he started talking about cars and racing, how young and vibrant he suddenly became. This man truly loved cars and his passion transcended the generations and touched us all. It was a real pleasure to have met you Wally, burn some rubber for us on your way through the pearly gates.

Thank You!

The last couple of months have been intense here at StreetFire. We've moved the office cross-country, relocated our families, found a new StreetFire-HQ and hired half a dozen people. Things have been crazy busy and I've been worried that we've neglected some of you while making this change.

We just got present in the mail today from Laminator in the UK, and let me tell you we all feel very appreciated by such a thoughtful gift. Jeremy, Jami, Chris and I all want to say thank you for the glasses, that little gift is a like a shot of Nitrous right off the line, and reminds us why we work so hard. So again, to Laminator and all of you that helped put this together, we all really appreciate this special present.
