I wanted to tell you guys about my wife at this point in her life. Yesterday she was diagnosised with liver cancer and if you know anything about that disease, it is terminal. The question was asked how long she would live and it was stated that they have seen people live another 2 years. Wendy went through cervical cancer back in Febuary and Chemo/ Radiation the whole gammet. The cancer spread through her lymph nodes to her liver. We have 3 boys. 18, 10, 2. > > Wendy I beleive is a pioneer in the DSM world. She held the record for quickest big16 fwd no nos record. 12.1 @116 / 4 years ago. She got preggers and of course had to quit over 3 years ago. Then the cancer, started to get the car back together. Her goal has been to run a 10 second in her fwd. > > Reason for this post: > > I beleive we as a DSM community can make this happen for her before she leaves us. I have contacted Wier Automotive of Leland NC W.A.R. Wier Automotive Racing. They have agreed to do all the shop work required to get the car together. Big thanks to them! I know there are shops or vendors out that that would love to be part of this progect. I have the majority of the items. I am asking for time, maybe a trailor when the progect is done to get her to Englishtown, NJ to run the car, parts to make the car faster. Wendy did get to go to the Showdown at Englishtown this past weekend. That is one thing she wanted. She got a pic with Kiggly and his 1st place showdown outlaw FWD! > > I challenge any shop, vendor, parts house to get this car into the 10s for my wife. I will sticker the car with your decal and you can be a part of history.
