We are having a very nice weekend. I started coming here over 40 years ago with my father. He has been gone for many years. We have a lot of great memories from here as well. </div><div><br></div><div>Our car qualified in 2nd place for the DP Group yesterday. Only beaten by a real Yenko Stinger corvair that has a lot of professional support traveling with it. It is running 10 seconds faster than everyone in the group. </div><div><br></div><div>We are within a second of one of the CP 356’s. I also know Vic and always enjoy spending time with him. He is not here. There are a lot if very well supported 356’s and 911’s from Ecurie here. Mark and I have been friends for decades and I enjoy learning from him. </div><div><br></div><div>Still 3 more sessions left to catch the 356 and work on improving my driving. </div><div><br></div><div>All-in-all we are having a great weekend. </div><div><br></div><div>Thank you again,</div><div><br></div><div>Paul Ricco<br><br><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On May 15, 2021, at 8:31 AM, Jack Wheeler via Fot <fot@autox.team.net> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div class="ydp8a369951yahoo-style-wrap" style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><div></div>
<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Oh how I miss the days. The June Sprints was always the biggest national race of the year (other than The Runoffs), and Road America was one of my 2 favorite tracks (along with Road Atlanta). I first went there in 1975, when I was first getting started, and was not very competitive. Qualified 17th in DP with a time of 3:14 & finished 7th, mostly due to attrition. I was a bit overwhelmed by that 4 mile track. Over the years The car (and I) improved to the point where I won my race twice, once in 1989 when Vic Skirmants wasn't there, then in 1991 beating Vic by a car length (or less). I qualified first overall with a time of 2:42, and had a best time during the race of 2:41, finishing first overall.<br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">And then there were all of the weekend festivities. The fans, watching the other races from various points on the track. Thunder Valley, Canada Corner, the Hurry Downs, and, of course, Turn 5, a great passing spot. Then off to Schwartz's Supper Club for dinner.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">I know you guys who go will have a great time, and you probably have great memories of the track as well. Everyone have a great time, whether racing or supporting. Good luck and be safe.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Jack<br></div><div><br></div>
