Some videos of a GM legend

I ran across these videos on Youtube... the pulls were rained out tonight. I thought some people on here would appreciate these videos of Bill "Grumpy" Jenkins.

There are also some good videos of Smokey Yunick on Youtube.

Thanks man! That is very true.

The Nostalgia Drags (York US 30 Reunion) at my local track were dedicated to Bill this year.

I don't think it's too far fetched to think some of Grumpy's many innovations in motorsports made their way through GM and into our Duramax engines... whether we know it or not.
