Pat's condition has taken a turn for the worse. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Foster family right now.
Cole, Dan - There are a gazillion prayers out there tonight for you and your family. Your Dad would kick my butt if he knew I had slung a prayer out there for him as well. We miss stopping and seeing him every week and hearing, "are you SH**ING me?!". Rock out with him, he loves his tunes! E-mail or call when you can - and most importantly, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES! --Annette and Sandie
i've stepped up my prayers into high gear as well. Best wishes for a get well soon for Pat. -scott noteboom
To Cole : My many years of drag racing I admired your dad, although I had not had the pleasure of meeting him. This year I had my GOOD VIBRATIONS funnycar pitted directly acrss from the JADE GRENADE at the GEEZERS at the GROVE and I finally got to meet the famous Pat Foster. I could not have met a nicer gentleman. I am truly sad to hear the news that he is in the hospital and I pray that his recovery is soon. Goldy
Jesus Pat, leave those doctors alone and come home. We all really miss your cranky ass and I hear that the dog is getting pretty ticked at your extended vacation. If there is any one that I know that can get through this, its you! This is not the end of the track! We are all pullin' for you down here on the Palouse. You are in my nitro burnin' prayers. Cole, Dan, if there is anything that you boys need from us/me you have my numbers. Marc V
Please keep the positive thoughts and prayers going Patty's way...he's not out the woods by any means, but is making a turnaround.

Glad to hear it! I wanted to come and say G'day when u were here for the show, but I kept my distance coz I didn't know if you might've had heavier things on your mind. You built a sick copper colored F truck I saw in some magazine YEARS AGO with an awesome bent stainless tubing engine bay that blew me away! Anyway...have a beer for me there in Spokane too!!
Cole: All of us here in Dallas are pulling for Pat. We missed him at our Xmas louncheon. Dail Emory was there and just a few short months ago he was not expected to make it. Dale even went to Bakersfield. So tell Pat That Don Ross and the Texas bunch want to see him next year. Thanks dwrfab Don Ross
