[TPR] Where are the racers? Who's getting ready?

Tue May 26 09:12:39 PDT 2015

That is a kind offer from you Dawgy, but if we are totally successful in
this endeavor whatever "sponsorship" you may be alluding to will be shared
by our entire team! :o)) All of the guys will be equally responsible for
making this happen if we can pull it off & I'm 99.9% sure it can be done
this year. All we've got to worry about is Mark not blowing his engine on a
road course somewhere & Frankie not pulling another FUBAR event before
August rolls around.........HaHaHaHa.
