I was given a Nascar tire by my brother Jim. He was leaving Pocono speedway after the race a few years back and these pit crew guys from Kevin Lapage's crew (Kodak #4) were giving away used Goodyear tires. He remembered that I had a man cave in my basement and thought I'd like it for down there. Well it sat down there for years. My kids when they were small used to climb in it and roll each other into the walls with it. Then one day I got this bright idea to take it to racecar shows and get autographs on it.

Well what started out as a few autographs turned into over 220.

It was a labor of love dragging that thing around to race tracks. I've met the greatest bunch of people over the years because of that tire. It has signatures from Drivers, car owners, track officials, photographers and even a few Lettering guys. I've taken pictures of everyone who has signed it.

One sad fact is that there are quite a few that are no longer with us.  Joe and I have been working on this and it's time to start sharing them with you. Feel free to add any comments. Would love to hear your stories.

I'm only going to post a few a week so I don't bore you too much, lol.

Here we go!
