    Victoria?! It's Otis Victor Edelbrock, Junior.

    Anywhooo, I had the pleasure of meeting him briefly years ago when I worked for Super Shops. Seems like he was on a vendor tour for the roll-out of the Edelbrock carbs. He was a very friendly man, and was obviously passionate about the industry, the craft, the hobby, and the profession.

      Man that's a flashback. It'll be nice when the Summitt store is open so we can have a place stuffed with racing gear to play in.

            Autocorrect is a bitch and apparently a feminist.

                Hearing the name "Super Shops" brings back so many memories.

                OP. Damn shame RIP.

                  I'm not worried. Those gals seem to get it.

                    Yup, 32,000 sqft "Retail Superstore" in Arlington. I can't wait.

                    Partially completed and slated to open later this year, Summit’s newest facility in Arlington, Texas will be its largest to date, with more than 730,000 square feet of distribution and retail space.

                        He was a GREAT guy to work for, and hang out with! He had so many stories and was a true hot rodder, he will definitely be missed...

                        RIP Chief!

                              I had the great fortune of hanging out and drinking with him, Mrs. Edelbrock, Christi and Camee in Racine, WI several years ago.
                              Good people.
