I got to meet Les at Atlanta Dragway in 2005. It stood out to me because I knew he was from CA, and I had just transferred from CA to GA. He drove that Grand Prix across the country, to attend the POCI event that year, and I Think he had his wife with him on that road trip.

I used to drive my Firebird from Port Angeles WA to Bremerton WA and race for the day, and then drive home. I didn't like doing it, but I didn't have a trailer or a truck to pull it. I remember it got 10 MPG no matter how I drove it, so it took a tank of gas to get there and a tank to get home.

Good times!
