Roger-----I did it more as a joke than anything-------------


However, since you mentioned Keith Black, I guess you don't remember/know that he passed away years before his name was sold by family members to this piston company-----------I knew Keith personally, and he, like many others, knew no limits----

Jerry, I did not know that about Keith Black. I do recall that he was one of the strong runners back in the day, and that's why we remember his name today.

I'm not sure about strong runner, he was the engine builder for the Greer, Black, Prudhomme car that was practically unbeatable, especially at Lions. As I recall it seemed he, Prudhomme, ran mostly from the spectator lane and more often than not he would lift the front wheels for at least 60 feet or so.
