A Little Ray Of Sunshine illuminated one of my usual haunts at Dawn, today. Bud Deboer kept Drag News a truely national force for informative results for years. Without DN, how could I have known that the Ohio Modified Production and S/S scenes were actually more energetic...and vital...than the local fluff I venerated as weekly sportsman events in the early '70's? Who could have facilitated the White Suit and cheap cigar southern charm of promoter/PR doozy Jimmy "Herculeas" Boyd? The mysticism of the AHRA Grand American's annual swoop down upon Green Valley Race City? Bud has started his new career of sharing historical perspective (and, thus, telling truth to marketing...) at (yay!) the Draglist. Here's hoping we don't bore him with self-serving homogeneric posts.
