Thanks, Kenny. That's a Best Appearing Car Award waiting to happen, huh? Even the steering wheel! Travis is one talented painter.

Thanks Jack and Debbie for keeping up the "Live from" reports. It's fun reporting, isn't it?

X2, Thanks for posting the results, and Kenny for posting pictures of Bucky's new King Kuda II.
Price of fuel keeping us close to home, got to see some of the All-Stars last weekend,
Good Luck with the new car. Paint looks great.

Note-worthy ...I almost forgot about our generator (diesel) that died yesterday afternoon during all that hot weather----thanks a million to Matt Schurman(Service Manager) of R&J Control for coming to the rescue and getting us going again .Matt's a S/C racer and he really knows his stuff. And does house calls at the races --Matt can be reached at his shop 973 328-6880 .He'll do it right the first time .

Also note-worthy -- Jack told me to mention that the IHRA must be in serious trouble this week as Ed Fernandez was spotted today in the pits at Atco and was wondering why he wasn't at Maryland International ..........could there be trouble in Paradise ????????

PS--I'm only the messenger please don't shoot !
