{"id":32,"count":46,"description":"In the Metal Crafter days, we were building Late Model Stock Cars, like wild Indians. Our #1 parts source was Townsend Race Cars in Ashland, VA, it was not uncommon to make a trip to Richmond every week. On one of the trips, I was asked to pick up some parts for Dale Earnhardt Jr\u2019s LMSC team. Don Hawk called told me drop by the Deer Head shop see Mike Jarrett and pick up a check for Townsend. When I got there Dale Sr was outside talking to some folks, the mom turned to me and said my son is the next Dale Earnhardt. Dale politely finished up and we walked inside, I told him what was up and he sent for Mike. He then told me \u201con your way to Richmond count every fence post  there is a great race driver behind everyone!\u201d He told me that Robert Gee used to tell folks that and he didn\u2019t believe it, but if you listen to the mommas there would be no doubt! Since those days I have reflected on those words of wisdom. I have had the opportunity to work with some great minds, folks that had great success, winners on the track, in business, great historians, craftsman, artist, and like Dale\u2019s analogy, \u201cbehind every fence post \u201c  there has been an expert behind every post. Our Makers IP team wants to utilize experts as guest bloggers, this part of the project is going to be called \u201cBehind Every Fence Post\u201d.  Each BEFP page will have a series of author specific information posts, pictures, links, standard procedures, equipment and product reviews.\r\n\r\n.","link":"https:\/\/makersip.com\/index.php\/category\/behind-every-fence-post\/","name":"Behind Every Fence Post","slug":"behind-every-fence-post","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/makersip.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/32","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/makersip.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/makersip.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/makersip.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=32"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
