Folks Of Interest Drag Racing legend can use your prayers!

In case you haven't already heard, Roger Coburn underwent 12hrs of heart surgery to repair a ruptured Aorta. Say a prayer for the "Quiet Giant's" recovery....

 

i hope all turns out well

 

Prayer sent!

 

Hang in there man!!!

 

I'm sure your refering to the Roger Coburn of Warren & Coburn fame, right? Those guys owned the top gas dragster class during the heyday of drag racing. I've got a large picture of the two of them sitting in the garage that they maintained the dragster in. You would not believe the humble surroundings that produced those E.T.'s. I watched them run a few times in the 60's and they WERE the team to beat.
Prayers going out to Roger for a full recovery. Please keep us informed of his progress.
