AN END OF AN ERA
I am sad to announce that an end to an era has come, 2010 was Work’N Woody’s last year traveling across the country as the “Official Push Truck & Safety Vehicle”, for the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series. I was notified by the World of Outlaws a couple weeks ago that they were going to go in a different direction and would not be renewing my contract for the 2011 season. So, after some very serious soul searching, I have decided to pursue a different career path closer to my home in Florida. After the last 5 years of traveling the circuit by myself either working for the Outdoor Channel or operating Work’N Woody, I want to be home with my family and be the husband and father I promised I would be 22 years ago when I married my beautiful wife Donna.
I want to thank the World of Outlaws for giving me the opportunity to live my dream for the past 2 years operating Woody by myself. This was a very difficult decision, but the right one for me to make. I have to thank all of my loyal advertisers who have helped and supported me; BUTLERBUILT, CLEAN SEAL, WATERMAN RACING COMPONENTS, GOODYEAR, RED LINE OIL, ENGLER MACHINE & TOOL, BOSMA POULTRY, WESMAR RACING ENGINES, SHAVER SPECIALTIES, J E PISTONS, AGGRESSIVE HYDRAULICS, GAERTE ENGINES, and OUTHOUSE IMAGE & DESIGNS.
What I am going to miss the most is working with the WoO road crew (Jim & Luci, Bill & Lynda, Eloy, & Justin) and helping all the teams and their crews, whether it was a traveling team or a local team, Woody has always been there for them all. I wish all of them good luck and a great 2011 season and beyond.
To all the Woody fans out there, I had a great time getting to meet all of you who took the time to stop by and chat before or after the races. I will have stories to tell for the rest of my life. My website will stay online through the end of 2011, so if you would like to contact me or purchase a t-shirt or diecast, please visit www.worknwoody.com .
I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
it will be intersting to see what the world of outlaws will be using to push of the sprint cars now that working woody is not there this season
