Stan,
A brief message from Italy ( for the time being). You have virtually
single-handedly stirred the energy and spirit of Midwest Spiridget racers
and created a group that races with gusto, helps one another, and
socializes like no other =E2=80=9Cgang=E2=80=9D in vintage racing. The Cape=
of Good Hope
Pub was/is unique and 100% Stan Mason style!
Thanks for your dedication and work. And I=E2=80=99ll get that header to yo=
u soon!
Be kind to others
