I was told to prepare for a long talk. LOL. I may hook up a recording device so I don't forget anything. Really looking forward to speaking with him.

Cool story and good luck with the phone call and future plans with the car.

Did your brother ever get to run the car?? If not, be sure to have something of his with you on your first pass.

He made a handful of passes at a couple test n tune dates. Never got to race it in competition though. I have a picture of him standing beside his reserved pit spot post, after winning the sportsman class points in 2001 at CPD. planning to tape it to the dash before I make the 1st pass. I have the gold card he got from that as well, which gave him free entry for the following season.

Thank you sir. The story he told me about that trip was colorful and comical. He described the snow as hurricane snow. Us Eastern Carolina flatlanders get sideways rain, not sideways snow. A real eye opener for him I believe. LOL. Next couple of days are gonna be pretty busy. I may call sometime Sunday.
