    I respect Mr. Luck's passion for racing. He should never take for granted that he came from a family that had the financial means to do it. I would have loved to race myself, but we didn't have money.

    THANK YOU
    I’m nearing 50yrs old & I just haven’t had much time for racing in the last 10yrs or so & I feel something is missing- my fear of age & ability scares me, but this story is what I needed- it was up lifting & full of inspiration for an elder gent like myself-
    My track car just sits, not much love for her lately😔
    BUT the story is my life-
    THANK YOU for this👍🏻
