For those of you who are older NASCAR fans, you may know the name Cotton Owens. I had the extreme good fortune to meet him on a couple of occasions. I keep my motorhome in a campgound in Maggie Valley, NC, near where David Pearson has a permenant trailer set up. Cotton was car owner/crew cheild for David Perason and Cotton was/is to be inducted in the NASCAR hall of fame this year. 

Warning: The surgeon general has declared that it is NOT unhealthy to smoke your competition AND I just discovered that my corvette is a hybred. It burns gas and rubber!
