I had a car spin on the freeway in front of me, I just thought of her as a "moving cone" and drove around her wondering where the next cone was

gotta love it when your track time comes in handy in the "UN"-real world!!

Good job!

Just saw the evening news, we lost one of our coffee group members earlier this afternoon to a bicycle riding accident - Bruce R.. Our prayers go out to his family.

We had a guy come over to the group this morning and tell us about his relative who had 3 Porsche diesel tractors; still has 1, gave the other 2 to family members. Hey, bring it to the WZ, all Porsche's are welcome.

Bruce was a regular in our group that went karting every monday night for one or two years. I also did a couple track events with him. I saw him friday (yesterday) at lunch and we were setting up a road ride for later this month. Bruce was a super nice guy, always smiling with a positive attitude. He will be missed.

I'd seen him just a couple weeks prior and would've loved to go out riding with him as well, so tragic and unexpected. He really was always nice and upbeat, what a loss...

Very nice meeting you guys. I was a little preoccupied with my 2 year old, but I still got to talk to most of you... The drive was a blast, super nice roads!

Great variety of cars: http://picasaweb.google.com/udoreisi...akeZoneJuly09#

Thanks again! Udo

Wow Very sorry to hear about bruce. I only knew him a very short time but he made it a point to come find my shop and stop in on occasion to chat. My thoughts and prayers go out to his freinds and family.

Paul
