Good deal. You'll see me on my yellow/purple racer then. Thanks for hard work!

Hope I can buy you a cold beverage there.

Looks like clear skies and warming up to 80 degree highs for this year, but for a few years it was cold and windy. Find yourself at a flag station in BFE (Like I did for 3 years) and that's a long day. The grid is a no-brainer. Just my style! I think I saw your car at Octoberfast in Daytona this year, yes? THAT was a crappy weekend and those cornerworkers were deserving of a drink!

This year's event has over 400 cars registered- should be an unbelievable weekend.

I am if I get my car back together!

Broke a rocker at the Turkey Bowl last November and just got the motor back together a couple of weeks ago. What can I say I work slow

My first time too! Weather should be great (I just got a new set of Hoosier rains )

Thanks for the hard work Gorilla Foot (Joe?). Great meeting Sam!

Just got back home. I won both Sprints Overall and 1st in class 2nd overall on the combined enduro (black). New fast lap to add to the database! (2:25:6!)

I heard you needed a distributor cap and I'm pretty sure we had one..... Missed you there.

Joe and Sam came by and I got Sam into the car for some photos and to go over the controls etc. I truly enjoyed that as it reminded me of how I got started. Better start saving Joe.......

I got back from an Intl trip on Friday night and only had the warm up session on Saturday before qualy. Had fantastic results ! 1st overall in both sprints, worker's choice and 2nd overall/1st in class in the combined enduro behind my team mate Roger in his 2.5 liter. I reset the record on GT6S down to 2:25:6!

Joe is "Shakin Joe", not me. They did not need me at the grid, so I never got a chance to say Hi. I did make sure I kept an eye out for you on the track though. You were flying- I could not believe the gaps you pulled out is such a stort time! Wow. Great driving.

! Missed you there then (sorry for the confusion, with usernames vs names it gets confusing).

At the beginning of the enduro, my car started missing (there was something on the gas this weekend as 3/4 of our cars had a similar issue) and I dropped 2 positions. As soon as it cleared, i reset the class record and climbed to 2nd.

Next time I'll be faster as the post race weight was 62 pounds above minimum. Time to diet (and remove some lead).

THANKS FOR THE HARD WORK MANNING THE CORNERS.

See you next time.

Dang it - knew I should have come back when Brady was there. One of the guys there said that he didn't think so...

Oh well - I have yet to build up my list of spares with this engine - usually I carry a spare cap and rotor...
