Dale, List

Yes please a little more attention.
That was Joe who mentioned about the people in the hospital
Even though us Amo's may look alike we do have different names.
We also have different views on alot of stuff. Joe works at the hospital and
see's all of this stuff that happens to people, he shares with us some of the
unfortunate things that happen to people, but doesnt mean the stuff is going to
happen to every one of us. Trust me, he bugs me about smoking all the time...
Here ill give you a list you can keep for reference:
Joe:
Racing at Bonneville since 1991
Knows his Kawasaki motors inside and out,
Has a real firm grip on nitrous applications for bikes,
Nurse at Rapid City Regional also Mechanical Engineer,
Health freak,
Joe thinks things out before doing them,
10 years OLDER than Jon,
thats what makes Joe, Joe,

Jon,
sole owner/webmaster landracing.com,
Been going since 1992 as crew chief for Joe,
Racing first bike in 2001 Speedweek,
doesnt have a firm grip on nitrous,
has a firm grip on computers and internet,
Not a health freak, smoker and addicted to Mountain Dew.
Jon is more of an impulse person does what sounds good at time without thinking,
Jon likes to learn things the hard way,
Jon 10 years YOUNGER than Joe.

Dale C. yep Joe's advice is good about wearing a helmet, but I chose not to
sometimes, and then again you are right wrecking at 135 the helmet aint going to
help much, but thats what I thought too while moving thru the gears.

Jon (now crawling back in my hole) Amo
