1992 - 1996
In 1990 I purchased a 1970 Chevelle from California with another friend of mine and we jointly raced it for two years. In 92 I bought a 77 Vega Wagon with a small block in it. I ran 9.50’s and raced it at ST. Thomas every weekend from 1992 – 1996. We were very successful.
2004
When I purchased my Food Basics Franchise in 1996 I gave up racing to concentrate on business. I sold the franchise in 2004, decided to look into racing again. I followed Ron Shilling around the tracks for a few years to understand and learn more about it.
2008
In 2008 I decided to build a new Mike Bos dragster. We started out with a 565 Gary Stinnett motor that ran 7.60’s, went to 598 cubic inch and ran 7.40’s, added an Aluminum block and ran 7.15’s, and finally, added Nitros and ran 6.70’s. Won some races, had a great time and enjoyed the tracks, the people and the interaction with fans. Today we are running a Blown Alcohol 477 cubic inch Chevy. We are running in the 6.40 – 6.60 range depending on the tune up.
