Welcome to this, the first edition of Pipe Smoke to appear on the YankeeRacer.com website. In October 2000, I started this column as an independent site and now it is time to move to the big time. There are three things that I hope to do here, carry the message of recovery from alcoholism, highlight some of the best drivers and teams coming from Western Ma., and just have some fun.

Who the heck is, “The Pipe”. My name is John and I am a recovering alcoholic and a member of the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous. In keeping with the A.A. tradition of anonymity, I have adopted “The Pipe”as my screen name, so that I can write about my experiences during mydrinking years and in recovery.
