From reading Smokey's book, more than once, I totally agree. Some folks I've talked to about the book, Don't agree w/ Smokey's opinions, viewpoints of things and people. Crap HE was there, I wasn't, neither were the "know-it-alls", I've discussed the book with...whatever...

I think Smokey's association w/ Pontiac might have been some of the best of times, in his racing days. His description of Mr. Knudsen, was of a top notch person, at work, or anywhere, anytime. I can't imagine anyone else doing as much for Pontiac. Smokey, ws and is "The Man", automotive wise. His personal life and habits, I'll not, go there......
