I also remember Dean Pink from his early days racing at Quincy.
At the time my nephew was a very good high school basket ball player. He played on the same team as Ronnie Dickerson who's Dad Ed introduced me to racing. Ronnie also was a boat racer.
Dean's Dad was a Missouri High School Athletic Association Official.
I went to all my nephew's games and used to heckle the daylights out of him from the stands.
I'm certain if Ronnie and I had not been friends with Dean; I would have been asked to leave a few games.
Good to see Dean's name here.
Dean,if you're out there give me a shout.
