Art,

You pulled off a great surprise and brought in some very special people.
Thank you also for the group Roast, I had no idea of all my short comings!

Mike is a hell of a nice guy, He gave me a ride in the beast the first time he had it at Road America. I believe we ran a 2:26 and he didn't know the car or track. I would like to see what it would run at 100%, 2:0X or maybe even lower?????

Thanks Todd.

I remember that was pre-Holinger and one of it's earlier times on track before setup was complete! We need to get you back in it again.
