Friday night a friend of mine, Ronnie “fofo” Ferret, had an accident at the track and sustained burns to his face and his car was burned very bad. Fofo is one of the best people that any racer could meet. He is always very respectful, and has a kind word for everyone.

He makes posts on “Racepics.net” all the time and he is one of the most knowledgeable racers on the internet. He will help anyone and share his information with anyone that asks. My prayers go out to Ronnie for a fast recovery.

I spoke with him today and I expect to see him back at the track in “L’ il Sumptin” Camaro or the monster N2O assisted 1968 Camaro 565 later in the year. Right now his wife has him grounded until the burns heal.
