Sorry, I thought you knew my sign on.
Actually, now that I think about it, if I knew that you didn't know who I was, I would have really messed with you :-)

As long as the weather holds (and rebuilds are complete) we'll be at ATCO beating the snot out of our stuff.

I understand exactly what your point is about LVD, (ALL TO WELL) we'll just have to wait and see if Howard makes good on the traction (etc.) as he promised Wayne. If Howard doesn't unfortunately the series will suffer BUT to no fault of Wayne and Scott.
My hat is off to Wayne and Scott for putting this series together, especially getting sponsors in this economy and not too mention the hours of their personal time and their own money to do all this. As far as the 7.49 thing I can understand it. As you know they'll be racing and the last thing they are going to need is to police all the entrants, (checking licenses, chassis certs, fire suits, fire systems, neck restraints, chutes, wings, vehicle weights, etc). As Scott pointed out, what do you do when a person with NO advanced et license wins a round running a 7.49 or quicker? Do you disqualify the guy and reinstate the looser, keep them both in, do they both loose, or do you BEND the rules and let him keep his win (which opens up a whole other pile of BS, where do you draw the line on rule bending)? That is NOT a call I would want to make. It just keeps eveything A LOT more simple. Like I said earlier, they just want to race and not have to play judge and jury which I can understand.

Aahhh, the Gators, I can't remember what 70 feels like (since I keep my house at 60). Tell Deb we said "HI" and hope all is well.

Come on SPRING......
