 GEORGE
IS TOPS
Just read your "Inner View" with George Howard.
. . . It made my heart feel proud. He is the man I always
thought he was. Kind hearted and not looking out for himself,
just making it better for others. Making it easier for a family
to be able to come out and see what all of us love so much.
Letting our troops in FREE just choked me up. You are "The
Man" George and maybe you have a plan. . .a plan I would
like to be part of. Who knows what next year will bring in
the eyes of George Howard.

I
have raced a series he put on in the past. . .Remember The
Sunoco Shootouts? It had TV, videos sold everywhere and lots
of print coverage. It was a great time for everybody. Like
my goofy interview on top end after I won Rockingham, I scooped
up a big frog in my chute (not knowing this) I couldn't figure
what the hell was wrong with my chute. . .jumping all over
the return road. Needless to say my interview didn't make
any sense at all because I was rather distracted. We all laughed
about it after we figured out it was a frog. George, Pete,
the camera crew and even the guy I beat all had a good laugh.
George said those where the biggest and fastest frog legs
he had ever seen...LOL
Maybe some folks will read this and learn from our pal George.
. .It's not about looking out for #1, it's about being #1
in as many hearts as possible and I'm sure he will win a lot
of our troops' hearts with his gratitude.
Sincerely,
Annette Summer
P.S. George, if you read this, please make it TURBO LEGAL
PRO MOD. OK?
The following letter was forwarded to us by George Howard,
owner of Huntsville Dragway. We thought our readers would
like to see it too.
HELLO FROM FOB COBRA, IRAQ
George, this is Jim Kyle from Shelbyville, TN. I have a Top
Dragster and cannot wait to get back and race at Huntsville.
I have always raced drag cars of some type and had Huntsville
Engines build me a new 540 blown Arias engine before I left
for this mobilization for my dragster. We are hoping for 4:00s
or even 3:90s when I return home this Fall from Iraq. We have
been mobilized with the Tennessee Army National Guard since
last June 2004. Most of us will have been away from family
and the drag racing community when we return for 18 to 20
months.
Please remember all of the United States soldiers that are
protecting the good old USA and protecting our freedoms when
you can. I heard you were going to recognize the United States
soldiers on the 4th of July Weekend races and I really appreciate
your support! I will be following the drags at Huntsville
on your web-page and THANK YOU from Iraq!
Jim Kyle
3/278th Regimental Combat team
FOB Cobra, Iraq, near the Iranian Border
P.S. My son and I are both here serving together in Iraq.
THANKS AGAIN for your support of the military and its soldiers!
