We've been fortunate enough to have Art and Jan display their GTO at our Friday night cruise. The car always draws a crowd and they keep Art busy answering questions. His car is cleaner on the bottom than any of mine are on top.

I've know Art & Jan since the mid-1970s. I agree with all posts above. No finer people in the drag racing world.

It was great to see them get some ink when they won a national event with that beautiful GTO. Now a feature story with good color helps show how nice that car is. They have been at it for so many years it shows again how difficult it is to be at the top of your game in NHRA Stock and Super Stock. Congratulations!
