What a weekend,

It was great to meet and hang out wit all the people that I read about on the blog and put some names with some faces. Pictures are just not the same as face to face. I would like to thank Mike and his crew at Tom Thumb for all the hard work they put into this event, AWESOME RACE ! The raceway and the King track are great. I also want to thank all the sponsors for the food at the track each day. Big thanks to Noose for runnig tech all weekend, great job dude, and thanks for the burger!

Thanks to all who donated race prizes for all the racers. Thanks to Jay , Greg , and Ralph for letting me tag along. The biggest thank you of all goes to Jim Difalco for donating the new Genisis controller with E.S.P. brakes.

Winning that as a door prize was the best! THANKS, JIM! And I can't forget to thank Jessica for pulling my name out of the bucket.

Thanks to Mike Swiss for the great entertainment during the races. I had a good time and hope to make it back next year. I hope that I'm not leaving anyone out if I am sorry, THANKS TO YOU ALL!

Pablo,

He doesn't know what do do with a car that has brakes. Heck, he probably would want Jim to add a coaster switch on it. :laugh2:

Thanks to Mike Swiss for the great entertainment during the races.

Joe,

You better hope Sano Dave doesn't see your post or he'll tell you the same thing he tells the Saturday night racers when I crack wise on him:

"Youzz' guys quit laughing, it only encourages him". :)

Hi Joe,

It was wonderful to finally get to meet you, and for you to share your awesome builds. I'm going to try and copy the one Can-Am chassis someday! ;)

Hope you've thawed from the cold Ohio weather. :shok:

Good meeting you as well, Brian. Feel free to copy anything I have built.

I was thawed as soon we hit GA: it was sunny and 76 out.
