Being a long time "run what ya brung" drag racer myself, I took my brother in law and nephew to Forces digs in Yorba Linda for a car club meet (non P car). John was most gracious and affable. He autographed my nephews shirt and talked to the 3 of us like he was a neighbor. He then reminisced about losing one of his championship rings in a newspaper rack outside a diner. I left thinking nothing other than I just met Mr. Cool!
Of course this has nothing to do with his personal life, but who would watch a TV show if their life was like most of ours? I did miss this show, so I didn't see how bad his family relationships are, but I suppose like most dads that are away from home 45 weeks a year, it is strained.
