Betty, Gene and Tom,

It has been great to know you for so long. Even butted heads with  
Betty for
a few years and always feared her possibilities in the Datsun.

Why is it that those who accomplish great things are basically ignored  
by
the Hollywood types? Pockets just aren't deep enough, I guess.
For the most part, we as a group, are humble people that goes about our
passion, take the bumps and setbacks, and keep fighting on toward our  
goal.
PR is usually not on our agenda! The Burkland Streamliner record speed  
has
to be admired...especially when you look at the road travelled to get  
there.
It will be sad not to see the car on the salt, however.

Tom:

I got this much -- but nothing more, like a sad announcement that the  
Burkland car won't be racing any longer -- at least that what your  
comment seems to imply.  Is there a story behind your note?
