Attitude

Sometimes I think it makes us who we are.

A guy (Ray) who I worked with at a restoration shop stopped by my house yesterday. He had his son with him. I really enjoyed working with Ray. I haven’t seen him in at least a year or more. I had made my move to work someplace else because my new job had good people and their knowledge on racecars was valuable to me.

Ray told me that his son was interested in cars with Big Block engines and that I was the best person to talk to. I explained some stuff on the engine and we looked at some of my build ideas on my computer. I could tell he was very interested. You could see it in his eyes. I asked the boy if he had a computer and he said yes. So before he left I gave him a new copy of Desktop Dyno for engine building. It’s software that helps you figure what parts will work in your engine. He’s going to be a great mechanic I can tell. Best of all he has the right “Attitude.”
