Henry,
You sense of humor is always appreciated, if not always understood. Wire wheel suggestion is under advisement, but we have no rules.
See you this fall. Your suite awaits.
It would be good to hear from more of this happy group.

It was great to meet more of the folks on this list, and I'm sorry I didn't spend more time meeting more of you. I loved driving the track imagining I was going through the esses at LeMans in the park like atmosphere.

They're really not that bad. I only lost four spokes out of the front left during the cup race and that was the one that was getting leaned on a bit harder than the others that only snapped one or two. As Kas mentioned, the spokes are easy to swap out without even taking the tire off the rim! The impressive hammering to remove the knock offs was just another display of strength aimed at winning the favor of the crowd.
