Happy Holidays from GeorgiaDragRacing.com!

We hope you have a wonderful holiday season and a prosperous New Year!

Randy Payne Update

I talked to Judy Payne (Randy's wife) this evening and Randy has improved enough to move him out of ICU and into a private room. Judy said that although he has improved, Randy is not out of the woods yet and he needs your prayers. Judy asked me to thank everyone for their concern and their prayers. She also asked me to request that no one calls yet (until Randy is stronger), but cards are welcome and will be appreciated. I suggest that you send Randy an email. Randy is in room #437.

Tony Bobo sent a few more photos of the ongoing restoration of Bunky Bobo's Hemi Hurricane Willys. The car is looking great, guys! Thanks for the update. More photos can be seen here.
