Funny Story related to Cooper.He was in the semi's of a Super Chevy race a few yrs back in Topeka. He was racing a my good friend and chassis builder Steve Bruce in his AJBBC camaro. Steve was strapped in under the tower,the starter was on the car and they were about to fire them up.......I walked up shook Steve's hand and then I told him "be careful and I hope that Pontiac WHIPS YOUR AZZ!"...My buddy got a lil offended but he got over it knowing my love for fast Pontiacs....Cooper didn't get the win light but Coop's car ran something like a 4.41 every pass.It was pretty impressive.
