Very cool read Ken, thanks for sharing. I always wondered how Tommy got the bucks to do the serious racing he did..........I don't remember that he did that many TV shows to pay for that sort of habit, but I guess he did.
This is the rig I remember seeing at Pittsburgh International Dragway when TV Tommy came there as an exhibitor. It gave us a glimpse of how the other half lived. :D

The guy was a master at marketing. His timing was perfect .

Here's some TV Tommy Trivia for you...
Know who used to drive the push car for Tommy's dragster?
Some guy with a last name of Prudhomme... think he went out on his own and did fairly well for himself...
