toddrh 0 Posted January 30, 2009 I went to high school with Ricky and Ron Lechein at Granite hills. Ricky was always a pretty good guy.....Last time I saw him was when he raced Stadium Trucks with Jimmy Johnson, who I knew at the time from the Barona MX track. I bumped into him up at Jimmy's old house up in Crest after they raced at Jack Murphy, had a few beers, talked a little about Broc Glover (another El Cajon racer). Man, it was good times way back then. Must have been 1992 or 93 IIRC. Ron Lechein turned into a dirt-bag. A deputy buddy of mine saw him at the Vista jail quite a few years ago.....threw it all away for a good time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
