Comment

  This is Joe Johnson in his ex-Phil Bonner Falcon racing against his brother Roosevelt Johnson in his AWB Comet. I'm not positive about the track, but I saw an article in Drag News that reported Joe winning over Roosevelt (with these cars) at Atlanta Speed Shop Dragway (and it looks like ASSD). Roosevelt told me recently that he let Joe win so that his brother wouldn't blow his motor trying to outrun him. Of course, I haven't heard Joe's version yet! -- David Dilbeck
