Bummed I'm going to miss it this year. If I had any homebrew I'd send it up there in my stead, however with the recent move I have none ready to go.

Have fun.

We should have room for 6 race cars, maybe more.
Hey Mike - room for me & my trailer? I just found out I may have a spot reserved somewhere in the paddock but hoping there is room in the pond.

Thanks,

Got more cookies? I'll gladly chip in for the cause.

Great to meet you & family as well. This is a great race weekend for the families - my kids look forward to it all year.

Mr. BT Stylin'??? We were offered a car a week ago that has likely found its way to Elhart Lake and now has BT cruisin in it. It was Puff Daddy's very own special Rolls Royce, with signature "Shawn John" 22in chrome wheels (signature in the center disc), etc. The car looked like a group of Gypsies had just been living in it for about a month.

Great seeing you and Jupe Katie.

And yes I was styling in a chick magnet. An electric blue PT Cruiser, comliments of Hertz. Set a personal best in 2:41 (in the turtle car, not pt)

More when I get back to the mountains...

Mike,
It was great seeing you again. Thanks for the beer and congrats on the 2:41.

There is no question the Road America is the best club race of the year.

You was flyin buddy. Congratulations.

I picked up your trophy for you. (Don't worry teammates, Jim is so much fun, it makes up for his unfortunate habit of being fast)

Great job by the organizers of the event.

A blast.

For the most part, the turtles in attendence did great.

New personal best for The Arch-Nemesis, the Wabbit, MRW, Stevie, Jim, Dave, Kurt, and others.

Chamber of Commerce weather too. And we added to the profit at Siebkens.
