December - 1984
There is an old story about a priest who takes a friend to a prize fight. Before the fight one boxer, obviously a Catholic, crosses himself. “Will that help him win the fight?”, the friend asks. “Sure it will,” the priest says, “if he can punch.” Tru Cheek has found the same thing to be true in his 20 year driving career: everyone wants to know about a handicapped race driver -- if he runs up front. Tru is a front runner who has won the Saugus championship twice in the last three years and is a threat in any race in which he runs.
