    Well, Sorta Larry,s mom and sister wanted Larry's ashes to be scattered among all his hot rod buddies. I drive a A Fuel front engine dragster for Chambers and Stroud which we all were very close to Larry. This past Sat was the nitro nats at Tulsa so what a better place to do it with all his friends there so in the chute he went. I wanted to share this video with his Hamb friend that couldn't be there. Larry got a standing ovation from the spectators.

    That made me smile. What I nice final ride.

    When I'm gone, and if I'm cremated, I think it would be nice to be mixed in some Bondo and spread on one of my projects I never finished myself. Maybe my nephew could do that for me.

    I think Larry would have approved,what a fitting tribute and the fact that his close friends actually took part in such a appropriate way of dispersing Larry's ashes.

    This video finally put a smile on my face when thinking about our late friend and adds new meaning to God Speed! HRP
