Thanks WC.... man i had a Four Lifetimes cd in my suitcase that i planned on putting in rotation saturday night if i was one of the people hanging out around the card game party area but i had to be fresh for Sunday morning. I must say i heard alot of junk music being played outside the motorhome and more than once i thought about rolling out of the bunk above the cab (me of all people sleeping in the highest spot in the moterhome

) but it was chilli cold and i was in my sleeping attire and under my 1971 NHRA blankets

... never got to play it.... Bill is a NASCAR fan so we listened to the race all the way home .. he is taking the same motorhome to Talledega..... in a couple weeks... i just might make that lap !!

hey thanks Gary and Randy !! Pro70 i hope to do you proud displaying your work on the supercrew shirt pic.... i wore it sat and all day Sunday making sure not to get bbq sauce or even a beer drip on it.. I had the choice of wearing a fresh team gateway T.. on Sunday.. I said nope i'm Good to Go.... leave it folded up... i wan't the front of this shirt to be seen !! Randy... you have no idea what it means to a guy like me to be able to chit chat with you here and there, teaching me how to read weather changes and their efect on a baseline !! we would have not finished 3rd in gateway points or won first round at INDY and almost round 2 without your support.... yea i'm starting to get gushymushy

but it will take a couple days to come down from this high feeling... thanks everyone for the support !!
