I am proud of you man....even though I want to throw up reading what you
wrote.....running that little Miata and winning 4 trophies in 4 orr's...I may be
proud of you....... but it is still GAY!
And your lucky no one in Texas saw you coming or going in that Miata....Agree
good Christian folk in Fort Stockton but well the parties just get a little
better in ELY Nevada at the Big 4 or at Jims Bar in ARNOLD Nebraska.
And Yea, YOU need to join us at the Spring (next month) in Ely...go to
<www.sscc.us> to check out dates and get a room otherwise we can share a single
room together!
I'm arriving with or without a Pantera on Thursday the 12th of May, staying at
the Hotel Nevada....you gotta be a real man to party like gladiators with guys
like you, Rowdy, John Bentley or Tom Di Iulio....there is just something RIGHT
about running down main street with no clothes on in Ely while snow is coming
down or riding on the hay truck in Arnold Nebraska that just feels right.
Dry heaving as I type this remembering you rubbing my back.
i hate to love you

Jack H. ran in the 110 class.
Teimann averaged 160.968, much larger attachments than I use!
When is the spring gig in Ely, maybe I should come out for some therapy?
BBORR is certainly a different event with TEN less Panteras.
I hate to say it out loud, 4 open road events and 4 trophies. (all luck and/or
poor competition)
The events are fun, nothing like blowin' past a sheriff w/ a radar gun! but I
miss the Pantera brotherhood and all the games. If you start talkin' about
gladiators in Texas you should check for exits!
the web master had a family emergency, the results won't be up for a while
(trip to australia and back). The folks in Ft. Stockton and Sanderson have a
helluva community - they talk funny but are generally nice folks.
PS: I keep the Miata oil cooler bagged in the winter and was overheating on the
way down. Once I took the bag of the oil cooler everything was under control,
sort of. Oil temps at 220 (at speed), water saw 240 in town a couple of times.
Power by Ford!
cheers,
