Ed, list,
The trophies will be mailed soon. The trophy guy, a cabinet maker by trade
and fellow racer, was overwhelmed this year with approx. 170 records and
requests for addtional trophies. When he got on top of the project it was
time to make the 100+ trophies for the SCTA banquet to be held this week. He
also has problems with addresses, seems some can build race cars and set
records but are unable to fill out a piece of paper with their correct
address info.
NOS bottle mounting location will be looked at very hard for 2001. As you
state, the bottle should be considered as a fuel tank and NOT located in the
driver's compartment. I know that a Corvette is spacially(sp) challenged as
far as adding anything. Is there no room in the engine compartment? Best
bet, fax Steve Batchelor with your idea - see what he has to say.
