In this bright future you can't forget your past.
BMW (Bob Marley and the Wailers)
United we stand and divided we fall, the Legends are complete.
I'm racing the best here at BP but Father time is much better then all of us united.
Not a snob in this hobby, after all it will be gone, if we keep on going like we do, and I have nothing to prove so I keep on posting because I have nothing to gain.
It's our duty to remember the past so we can have a future.
Pistol Pete you will always be in my memory.

It was great to see Tore return to racing. The last time he raced on the Kingleman was 2007. I believe this was also his first Jail Door race on the Kingleman.
He drove the same car he built/raced in 2009. He raced very well after a long hiatus.
His new Retro32 inline car is a typical Tore special, perfect.
