[Spridgets] 60th Sprite Midget Anniversary Elkhart Lake / Road America Street Course and Concours

[Ron Soave]

This non-list format won't let me send unless I have less than 100 addresses, but all are welcomed at both Blackhawk races. I've been trying to get that out for weeks!!  
Salisbury ran in his SCCA runoffs configuration last year in October with slicks and flares, and vintage racing managed to somehow survive. I'm sure we can get through this without the world imploding. 

We have high class problems.

He and the others like him are the guys that have carried the water for you for years without you recognizing it.  All the knowledge base you rely on, all the development work that has produced the performance parts you need is a result of their dedication, and not yours.  These folks and the cars they race represent far more of the 60 years of Sprite racing than Vintage Racing can ever can.

I came across this video the other night, watch it and imagine excluding a car and driver like this from the 60 year history of racing Sprites.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvLbi_ibxV4   ... I can't.
