He was running an old Mercedes in the 24hrs of Lemons, in Willows, California just less than a month ago. There car took peoples choice I think and they won $500.00,..in Nickles! That boy can drive in the rain real good.

That boy can drive in the rain real good. That had some great coverage in Hot Rod, Patrick. I had a friend on a team there and it is a great way for someone to go low buck racing and have a load-o-fun. Glad to hear Larry was wringing one of those cars out........

Title: Re: WTF is Big Larry McKenzie? Is he MIA? Post by: Jim Ratto on January 31, 2008, 18:16:13 pm thanks guys, yeah I called him yesterday... we just haven't BS'd since Drag Day... sounds like he's bringing the Good Enough car to Bug In.
Larry we miss you. leave the latex girls alone and come hang out Title: Re: WTF is Big Larry McKenzie? Is he MIA? Post by: larry mck on February 01, 2008, 07:01:06 am Thanks guys for the concern. I have been real busy with work and family. Yes I had a blast at the 24 hours of lemons, we had drove a 65 Mercedes Benz 190 that was probably the slowest,oldest and tallest vehicle out there, except when I got it in the rain and kicked butt on a few guys. We still finished 32nd out of 71 cars. I also helped my 17 year old daughter go through a driving school in my spec Miata, she did very well. I also have been getting my black 67 fine tuned for the upcoming event season. I want to bring out Good-E-Nuff to the Bug In along with Freddy Payne's Super Bee, now under going restoration by the new owner Ray Schubert. I think they would play better to the crowd running side by side. I'm always lurking on this site I just don't always post. It always amazes me who is on this site, all the who's who's of VWs, I just love reading all the stuff and looking at the pictures. I loved Sarge's old and new photos of the hang outs.
