Garlits was my childhood hero when other kids looked up at ball players.

You can't help but have a lot of respect for the man.

I have always felt the same way about Don Garlits - Ever since he went out to west coast years ago and put all of those arrogant California rodders back on their trailers. After looking at the video, I have a renewed maximum respect for the man.

I am amazed Big Daddy is still running down the track at 82. That give you a goal Ross. When you are 82 you can run your electric flying challenger car down the track.
