Michael's Story
Here is the Mike Abbott update, I think I am still the same guy many of you knew way back at Hazen. My life is good and I seem to live a charmed life. I still have cars on the brain. My daily driver is a BMW M3. What can I say... I like to drive fast and hard. I have been involved with motorsports since the day I got my diploma. I have worked with several motorsports teams both as a wrench and as a director of their "New Business Opportunities" in other words I seek sponsorships for professional or sportsman teams. I still LOVE drag racing. For the most part I have been involved with one local team since getting out of Hazen. It turns out that we have been one of the most dominating sportsman teams in NHRA. At last count I think we have won like 60 races in the past 25-plus years. I have also been fortune enough to win (3) three NHRA Pro-Stock titles in 99, 2000 and 01.
I am married ( Melissa 20 plus years) with no kids, and still live in Renton, work at Boeing (not sure when). See the guys (Malgarini, Hemphill, Hienz and a few others ...Expand for more
regularly)
I built a custom Home on the Kenai river in Alaska a few years back... YES I STILL LOVE TO FISH! And finally bought my first commercial property this spring. SO busy,busy,busy is my watch word I guess.
On a sad note I lost my Dad a couple of years back, many of you knew him. I miss him every day. Matter of fact I built the house in Alaska for him and I to fish from as soon as I retired but it did not happen.
I have found some other things in life besides racing and fishing. I love a good wine and a meal prepared with love. I love to talk politics and our American heritage.. WHO WOULD HAVE THUNK IT!!!! Music seems to calm the beast in me. I pretty much like it all. I have strong beliefs in our history and our future. This year I really became active in the political process. I actually spent time and my hard earned dollars supporting a presidential candidate. I am happy to report we won!. Gawd I hope we do better in the future. Time will tell...
OK , that's the Mike Abbott report in short form.
Tight lines to all you. Mike
