assistant: That was Jamie in the 16 . ted's ok I guess  pretty consistent that's what
counts...then again ther's gunning up there too he's consistent.
we have had some of the best turn a wheel. reggie, eddie flemke jr. john
anderson is also a driver I liked there..he was the Iceman. he just went out
and did the job...he had a ciggerette lighter in the 15 for those yellow flag
laps.. not too many people knew that (g).  then we had both ted and mike for
awhile...
I enjoy the tour car races...4 barrel carbs, more ponies, alot cleaner
racing..
it was funny at the sizzler.. I went into the infield with the crew.. the
pro's and SK's were pretty tame noisewise compared to the tour cars..
I wish ray holmes (mystique crew chief) the best if he goes to DE busch car
crew...I had alot of fun and learned some things from him. I will miss him
but want to see his talent grow.. he went down to charlotte with steve
park...wonder if he will be a driver in the BGN car as well...
they may have been going to the glen or something but as I was coming back
that tuesday I sure saw alot of trailers and duallies going west on 90 up
there by albany..
thank you much Alan, I'll look for it. stepanie replyied to me about the all
female teams down in the ohio region... lots of tracks I never knew were out
there..
naw....take it to the limit..then ride the wild surf!
it could be said in reverse as well
                                                    Glad to see you back!!
