I've been notified that Leonard Woods, the last of the Stone Woods and cook car, died this morning.  I don't have any further details.  Fill in the story if you know, please, -- and keep his memory in your heart.

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.

Another racing pioneer gone, even though it was drag racing many of us knew and respected Leonard Woods.
Stone-Woods & Cook were among the best. RIP Mr. Woods.

I met Leonard at the World Gasser Championships at Mile High Dragstrip back in 1994. I was a big fan of the gassers back in the day.
