Remembering Bobby Langley


General

Oh man I hate to hear that Bobby Passed Away ! I remember Bobby from when I was a kid and latter worked with him at a Local Aircraft Plant !

Bobby was a down to earth guy never rich which is why he got out of racing ! When High Dollar Aluminum parts took over competitive racing got to expensive for Bobby and he said goodbye !

He was always one guy you could depend on if you needed help at the track !

With the recreation of his cars he had once again regained interest in the sport that he loved .

Bobby was the first to run the famious Chrysler 392 Hemi when everyone else still ran the Red Ram 332 !

I have never heard him say how he got one months before it was released to the public or installed in any cars !

Thanks for the Memories Bobby glad I got to shake your hand one last time last summer .

Texas Top Fuel Legend Vance Hunt on Racin' & Rockin'!


Drag Racing History

Always enjoy hearing from the " Little Texan " ! Thinking of him reminds me of all night Qualifying at Green Valley Raceway !

Lord Drag racing sure has a lot of Legends and I want to say thanks to Bill Pratt and Wally Bell for putting a ton of stuff in the archives for us old timers to listen to when we hang it up !

Went to Kennedale Raceway Sunday and Lord it was a beautiful day ! I was amazed at the number of guys and girls who turned out to do a little testing !

I know D/FW is insane car crazy but you woud never know we were in hard times.

Even one guy doing LIC Runs in a big tire Camareo ! I'm reading Grady Bryants Roswel One and hate to put it down . Good Stuff !
