Congratulations to Team RPM. Good job on the move up, Terry.

Butch, I kept Rande, Ron, and Terry busy for a while during the lower mains.

You did a great job, Eric

Swimming, well one of us was. I will be there next year, hopefully Rick will be, too. I opened my savings account today for it.

This was one heck of a race and it was fun watching Eric run his own enduro!

Red lane looseness killed me in the first heat even with "Coach Hershman" next to me saying keep it straight (coming out of the finger). I tried like heck then to come from last to make the move-up but just missed out to Mac who drove a great, as did Terry Watson. Terry and I always seem to be dicing at these big races. It's lots of fun.

So I got to take my usual straightaway marshaling spot and watched a great A Main.

Once you see how much money you saved up... you won't want to blow it on slot racing. LOL.

Well, I'm not sure how to take that. Either I will have so little money in there (which will be the case) that I don't wanna spend it on slots, or I will have so much I won't want to spend it on slots. We both know the latter won't happen. LOL.
