Roger & Marlene MANSON



Purely a racering couple, totally dedicated to the car and to good organization. They were running a little jeep when we first started Nitrous , Instant Horse Power Inc. in the mid seventies we all raced 4X4 in the rain and shine. Hill climbs,drags, obstacle course and large campfires. I was the most enjoyable crowd I ever racer with. At that time the somewhat modified 4 cylinder jeep was full size and the Pontiac Tempest four was a novel choice to run. Roger did extremely well and won many events. So when the Green Boys showed up to tech our "hawk" I was surprised to hear Roger was unloaded in my drive way to get his Super MODIFIED, dragster/cum Bonneville racer final inspection before heading south on the week end. They were very nice and helpful people 30 years ago and now they are even nicer, matured and relaxed. Good luck and see you there.
