And now back to working on the computer - after all, do you want
to bring a knife to a full auto gun fight? That is what using
stopwatches and course notes is these days when every Corvette
has effectively a full blown rally computer and a cruise control
accurate as hell up to 160+!!!<br>

<div>Great ideas Steve.</div>
<div>Thanks.for invitr...but I will be movin shortly up
to SF for work on HSR project initially to Fresno so
enjoy the rally...</div>
<div>Again, I THINK you have great ideas but its not US
you have to convince...its the board....but I like the
"Hand Timers Award".......Mike Borders had such an
award at the 3 MKM eventd...sadly all 3 of them which
I ran are all history. </div>
<div>Maybe start a petition we could submit.to all three
orr groups (SSCC, BORR, SORC)....</div>
<div>I saw quite a few 1st timers many of them with
sports cars who were young guys and gals....lots of
enthsiasm among.them and many of those you probably
drafted into<br>
"TEAM INVADERS".</div>
<div>We were happy to be drafted onto your team...but
when you hit 140.75 and dont get a mention I think
okay....I am not there to get a mention....I am there
to have fun. ;-)<br>

<div>>We DID have fun passing a Pantera ON A TRAILER
:-) And yes I do understand the risks/logistics of
driving one all the way there and back - like the Z's
- you have a tire problem on the way there and frankly
the odds of getting it resolved before the race is
about zero (the Z's tires are usually special order -
the Pantera ones I expect are also).<br>

Saturday - care to grace us with your presence in the

I'll change from bright red paint to shocking pink
when the time comes for new paint?) ROTFLMAO :-)<br>

notes/stopwatches - handicap +1 seconds<br>

<div><span>We DID have fun passing a Pantera ON A
TRAILER :-) And yes I do understand the
risks/logistics of driving one all the way there
and back - like the Z's - you have a tire
problem on the way there and frankly the odds of
getting it resolved before the race is about
zero (the Z's tires are usually special order -
the Pantera ones I expect are also).</span></div>

Hell's Kitchen next Saturday - care to grace us

from bright red paint to shocking pink when the
