Dana,

You're taking what I said the wrong way. Nobody is telling you how to vote
but it did start to become a joke. I was happy for the Sacks' but even they
was surprised.

Those of us who have been attending the Glen for a long time saw the voting
and the running of the show getting outta hand.

Mike wants the cars that deserve it, to get the respect they deserve, as
well as the owner. I personally didn't care, but it did bother Mike and
several others.

Mike
