ANOTHER GOLFER/DRAG RACER
Agent 1320 just got the word that Kenny Perry, who just
kicked the field's butt at Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill course
in Orlando, FL joins other golfers like Jay Don Blake who
drag race when they aren't golfing for a living. Perry
has raced at Carl Weisinger's Orlando World Street Nationals
for the past three years. Perry races in Ten-wide Outlaw
Street with a nitrous injected small block. According to
Weisinger, his best performance was to qualify 33rd in
a 32-car field. [3-21-2005]
