Please drop him a note to express our appreciation of his work with IHRA and especially his many years serving our country with the Navy. We will miss him at the events and wish him the best as he continues to serve the country in his new position. McKinney has been instrumental in co-ordinating support packages for the troops from the drag racing community.

Please drop him an email and pass on your thanks.
