Raced for 33 years, married to the same girl since '79, Living on the farm where I grew up in Raymond.
I retired from racing in January 2010 because of medical problems. I posted a statement on my web page 96smokinjoe.com.
I ran two races in 2013. Another driver put me in his backup car. Same driver put me in the car for one race in 2017. I've been rebuilding race motors for a couple of drivers.
