Thanks Don. I would have liked to make that event as well but it's just been a
really full racing schedule and it didnt work out. I hope they have an
acceptable weekend. I look forward to hearing what their proposed schedule for
next year is so I can take it into consideration. Rumor has it they will have
the first vintage event at the re-opened VIR.
And, you are correct about George's car, it's really well done and well
driven. He just keeps improving both all the time. I hope he has a geat time
this weekend, he's a wonderful guy.
Ok George, that's all the sucking up I'm doing for this season. See you next
spring back in Savannah for the SVRA race.
