Let's begin by thanking Port Jeff for doing a tremendous job of hosting the event and providing EXCELLENT racing conditions from the track prep, power. pits and for sure a great staff!  Plenty of parts for everyone too.

 

I want to thank Tony P for his artwork for the posters and for whole idea behind this event way back for RP1.  It is ALWAYS a blast and a lot of fun.

 

To the racers, thanks for coming and participating. This is especially to those that REALLY traveled far like Haruki, Tebu, Kamo and Mikeyzo form Japan and Steve Kempson from England. 

 

To the Sponsors,many who were NOT manufacturers but some of or racers!

 

Of course thanks to the IRRA® for the BEST rules to make the competition fair for all. Not many failures in tech and guys were lining up 1/2 hour before we even said they should!

 

Finally, thanks to John Streisguth for his work on the Wounded Warrior raffle.  It took a lot of work keeping track of those tickets.  Of course a big thanks to James Grandi for building a great car.
