Live from THE ROCK

It may have happened before, but I don't recall seeing one Pro-Am event needing three different weekends in three different months at two different tracks to be completed. That's really stretching it out!

Only 1 track, but VMP in 2002 took 4-5 tries! Eddie Bolton was glad he kept going back.

Another abysmal showing at the track this weekend!

But all was not lost - Michael Beard applied the graphics to the 'wagon, and it turned out even better than I hoped for! The car really looks like a "race car" now, and maybe some day it'll start ACTING like one!

Thanks, Michael for cheering me up. And thanks also to Charles Myers and his Dad for their hospitality, it was very much appreciated. Hopefully I'll be back out again soon with somewhat better results.

I got a chance to get the camera out of the bag during the first time-trials, here a few pictures.

...........And a few more...........

The last picture is my 'wagon in front of the statue of Iron Mike at Fort Bragg, my spiritual center. HOORAH!

Lew, What's going on with your car? What's it doing or not doing?
There's plenty of help available right here...

Thanks bud, and congrats on another runner-up. I know you'll make something of yourself someday!

Get your spacer? I gave it to Jim at Martin last week.
