John Lingenfelter RIP
The untimely loss of John Lingenfelter is a big one for the NHRA and the millions of high performance fans who knew the name 'Lingerfelter Performance Engineering' on a Corvette engine or almost any racing combo meant something. Good guy, taken too soon. He'll be much mourned and sorely missed.

Yeah, that sucks! Even though he was a chevy guy, he added alot of hp to the vettes. I wonder if the name will live on.. I'm sure he won't be forgotten.
