Ouch! Any word on how that happened? There are a lot of great cars running there, man. Some really fine shots of the Gator Gumbo Olds...Aaron is excellent. Cheers, WC1

yea WC... we were in the lanes a couple pairs behind.... i was standing in my normal spot under the tower out of the sun and watching everything. the dude was in the right lane, left good and got out of shape and hit the right wall, bounced off and under power drove head on into the left wall !!

Man. That's a damn shame. I could not only see dollar signs flying out of it, I was looking at that poor guy's heart and soul squished like a bug...

John the Plumber was here at the 1-man shop along with his crew of 7 with there all white vans

.. we talked about upcoming nedded maintenence (my job ) music (listening to old band job tapes and Four Lifetimes

) i mentioned to JTP that Don the Driver is on the fence about going down to the $2000.00 to win 1.8th mile footbrake race @ I-57 in Benton Il. Sunday.... JTP peeled off a C-note and said here is entry and buyback for you guys !!

He want's us to go !!
