Mike,

Since we are running short of time, can we call TRG and give our contributions via a credit card over the phone?

I think someone needs to make a turtle t-shirt for this occasion!

Hi Rich and all.....

Yes - you can.... I'll probably have you e-mail BOTH Mike and I to let us know as well - but, let me call TRG tomorrow and set it up. When you call - the sexy woman's voice you'll hear - who answers the phone - is Rosa (AND - you better say "Hi" for me!). She is wonderful.

Let me work out with Rosa how to take CCs over the phone - as I know Debra will be leaving for France in the next day or 2, OK???

All of your support is well.... Ummm - daunting... Humbling... Incredible....

To Mike, Team leader who has done so much for Rennlist, and now TRG - and to all of you.....


^^^^^^^^
That one is for you.....

Extremely well said, Jim! And just one of a hundred reasons, at one dollar each, to contribute to this great idea.

Sign me up for $100, I will send the dollars to John D. via PayPal.

Team mates (and new team mates)

thank you all so much.

This is a hoot.

You're all sponsors of a Le Mans entry. Can you believe it?????

to you

You are all amazing. John said just wait and see how responsive this group is.

PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS:
Please make your check out to The Racers Group
(If you like, note HWFM RACING on the check memo line)

Mail it to me as soon as possible to:

Mike Faems
828 Glenview Rd
Glenview, IL 60025

I'll get them to Kevin's folks right away.
As John noted, you may be able to contribute directly to them. We'll let you know tomorrow. Please watch this thread.


SPECIAL THANKS to John D, our Team Geek and Frozen Rotor specialist, And now DYI specialist. John is a huge booster of the team, and was the catalyst for all this.


A few people have asked about pictures. I'm sure we'll be able to get something that is downloadable.

We're hoping we get footage on the Speed Broadcast

Carlos
We do have a shutterbug already... how about first assistant camearman? Team Visual Stylist?...


Jeff
What Grid Girl could resist a line like that?

You already have experience kicking butt on a major race team. Of course they could use you.

Jason
thanks for your generous offer. Where else can you sponsor a Le Mans team and get a deal on a lw clutch. Is this a great website or what?

Icer
I'll get the logo to Jen so we can have the special decals

FastMaz
I wonder if contributions would increase if prints of your avatar were used as an incentive?????

Renee J
You're a member of the team now. What team function would you like?

993 Dave
Welcome. You'll find Rennlist adds immeasurable to the pleasure of owning your car.

Danny
Get ready First Mate, we have a lot of new teammates coming. Can you get Speed on the ship?

Ben
Of course I remember you. I still have the pic somewhere

Princeton
I'll e-mail you about the site - this would be a great launch You never thought that turtle drawing could move so fast, didjya?

Thanks again all.
The only thing that would be more fun is if we could all meet at the Circuit de la Sarthe.

As team sommelier, I highly recommend ’04 TRG LeMans Vintage at $60, so count me in.
Let me know if we need to FedEx the sticker.

Man, I'm too busy to check the list one lousy day & look what happens Count me in for a Benjamin. Great job Big T & John D. on pulling this together. I notice from the pic John has on the opening page that a large area is available across the top of the wing

PS: John D., I used Paypal.

Mike,

I'm definately in and second Kim's thought that an action pic from the event with the HWFM logo would be very cool. The other incentives are also great.

I'm willing to be that there are others on the east coast that may be up at the Glen for the club race that will also want in on the deat, so hopefully the offer will be open for a little while.

Check is in the mail.

A chance to join HWFM Racing and sponsor a LeMans car. Sweeeet! I'm in too. Check is in the mail tomorrow.
Do you have an official windshield washer or tire pressure checker yet?

Neither one Chris.

We don't usually go fast enough on this team to build much pressure over the cold temps, but it's good to check it regularly.

thanks for being a Le Mans sponsor
