Gary, what are you doing for 09?

How is the Stocker?
I hope to at least run the Arizona divisionals, but my companies having an all employee meeting near the end of the month---I have mixed emotions on how this will go, because the last time we had such a meeting, layoffs insued prior to it. I'm going to try to be positive, but with sponsors backing out, loans being needed by companies to get by, and contingency sponsors falling off the tree like autumn leaves, it's getting tough.

As for the car, I still need to replace my lower control arm, before I can race again (after Las Vegas' blown slick ordeal). Otherwise once I do a few easier things (hoses/belts), the car will be ready to try and make this year in Div. VII better than last year was---It's been 10 months now since I had that red-light (-.022) loss to Brad Burton, that kept me out of the quarters at our first race (and would've also given me a chance to finally avenge my 3rd rd loss to Mike Cotten from the '99 Mile High's, by .009!!!)...that 10pts that I could've gotten (since I was on the good side of our other-wise double breakout run), would've had me up to 23rd in the final points standings, and tied for 21st (and with my budget and our racers out here I feel that I would've accomplished something major), so I have something to shoot for this year!!!

Good luck with your car, and I hope to see you out here as well!!!
