Hershman was there?!?!?

I though he couldn't leave the state until after his trial?

(Ron claims she couldn't have been just fourteen...)

[TSR]

He had extenuating circumstances, as she may have been fourteen but she looked much younger.

[Mike K]

Way to go, Sano Dave! Good luck in the Main!

Congrats to Sano Dave. Forsyth was right on his tail. How old is the kid now?

Wow, big names in racing in this field are hooked! The "Sano" at Chicagoland will be loaded with top racers from all over.

[Ron Hershman]

How old is the kid now?

18... off to college in the fall.

As a side note, no retro racers were harmed with this action...

Sorta took the fun out of my post.

[tonyp]

Ray, notice what car that was. LOL....

[Ron Hershman]

Probably the reference to D3.

[TSR]

Gentlemen,

I don't think that retro racing (IRRA or D3) needs negative publicity when we are all trying to promote this form of racing. I got the straight story now about what happened and it was no big deal, but I will remove all the relevant postings after all of you had plenty of time to read them.

Enough to say that one racer who is NOT a regular Retro racer was not happy with the tech inspector's JUST decision and decided not to participate. He could have refrained from what followed, but it is no big deal and don't look into it any deeper. The person in question is a nice guy not used to the different requirements in Retro racing compared to the Eurosport cars he is familiar with. Nuff said.

[MantaRay]

I made no mention of anything negative... you are the boss... and the boss... is... you know the rest... that's why...

[MantaRay]

Ray, notice what car that was. LOL...

Hi Tony... Yep... It was the one that was cut in half "perfectly", even through the lead wire... If it could have been cut thru the motor... even better.

Ya gotta love it

[TSR]

Ray,

You did not say anything negative, no issue with you, but your post had become irrelevant.

[MantaRay]

I resemble that remark!... I wasn't tryin' to keep up with Phil...

No big deal

[MG Brown]

It was the one that was cut in half "Perfectly", even through the lead wire.

"Jedi" loaned George his Lightsaber.

Ray,

I was commenting to Ray C about the second place car. LOL...

I guess my stuff ran OK out there.

[MantaRay]

I heard second and third... excellent!

Looks exactly the way it did when it came off the track at HVR!!!

[NJ Racer]

Tony

That's so funny. I thought so. That chassis likes flat turns!

[slotcarone]

Most of HVR's King track is flat so I guess thats why the car worked so well there, too!!

[S Forsyth]

TonyP, and Steve Koepp,

I would like to thank Steve Koepp for the loaner car that Jonathan raced. TonyP, this was one great car, very fast and handled great.

It was a great race to watch between Sano Dave and Jonathan, it was a very fast pace and they both were flawless. Sano Dave had a little better car then Jonathan, and he deserve the win.

Also a BIG THANK YOU to all the racers in that race who all stayed away from them and let them race to the end.

TonyP, I hope you don't get upset with Steve for loaning the car to Jonathan. Thank you again.

[tonyp]

Steve, no problem. Thanks for the result!

[NJ Racer]

Tony,

You better use that on the Flat Track at the Sano. If not, can I? LOL.
