Them was the good ole days . All the other sportsman had the same coverage that race and that whole year .Maybe Bret could get someone's interest in this again.

Yeah Danny, I do because that's how I saw a likeness to my car (albeit the original burgundy red in color), in the finals of an '86 national event...I will forever hate that I taped over that race, since I ruined my chance at possibly getting my car to the finals of the Mile High's 20yrs later.

Bret was one of us whether behind the microphone, or when he was/is racing his own stocker...THANKS BRET!!!
