tech girl here sheepishly raising hand.....my name is Karen by the way.

If you guys go to SGMP or Gators in a few weeks be sure to stop by and introduce yourselves so I can attach a face to a name.

I don't make enough money to buy pictures. However donations to a good cause are acceptable.

Thanks Chuck! And thank you again for the bbq at orlando!

I won't be working tech at Gators officially...but may be around at least one day to help and observe since I am on the Safety Safari crew that event, and budget may not allow for me to work tech as well.

I don't imagine I will be able to sit around for 3 days at Gainesville after SGMP without doing something constructive!

Karen, you are doing a fine job. I have been around this for a long time and even done some tech work myself, you do a great job and have a super attitude. You are knowlegeable and firm yet not overbearing. You are a refreshing addition to the NHRA D-2 group. You. J.T., Harry, Jim and the crew worked like a finely tuned HEMI this past weekend! Looking forward to Valdosta. Jim

Agree with Jim, Karen you are a great addition to the D2 team. You teched my car at Reynolds last fall and helped with questions at Gainesville...thanks to you and the whole D2 team.

Hi Karen. I was the one with the S/ST car that you questioned about having a window net. I was very impressed with how you handled my response and then calmly proceeded to verify what the right answer to the issue was. I must say that in simular situations before the end results have been me raising my voice, someone else raising their voice at me and my blood pressure going up. Thank you for the manner in which you handled and addressed the question. I'm looking forward to seeing you at SGMP and I'll take the time to properly introduce myself. Lastly, thank you for the job you are doing for us racers.

Jim, we all know you have been around racing since the days of square wheels. Where did you work tech at? Moses' Egyptian Raceway? What years? Around 3000 B.C.?

Hey Dan Moore, you're #1.

RIP Mark Graham & WB Hutto

Back to Rich. How about the Frday 10K purse race and the Saturday Quik 16 TS and TD. Last time I saw that was Immokolee. Rich is doing a great job allowing track owners to bring in more money so they can make some. Keep it up brother.
