It's a good thing you wrote "owner" and not "driver."

Good luck on it all coming together for you.

I miss it too Doug . I know its not like it used to be up in the northeast but Im glad we had those times . We were there from the beginning with the CC , quick 4 , pro-8 . I do miss the rivalry with you Vette Drs etc , but in the end we are now friends . And I still never lost to you or Chris in a heads up race ! Im glad you guys are doing well and respect what you've accomplished . I still speak to Julio from Cartek often and Im glad you guys work together and are both doing well with your parts manufacturing .

But you did go home with your tail between your legs at the "no tears - no excuses" race..

I am foreseeing a line up between two supercharged C5's in the future, loser buys dinner..
