Nice Vette

I'd LOVE to do an auto-x, but I have no idea if there is one here in Vegas.

Jon,
Sorry I missed Eureka this year... It looks like you have made a number of changes on your Vert. The course looks similar to last year, that is a great time for your first event...

Yep you missed your chance. We had 134 cars which went pretty well since we could only get one car on the course at a time. It is always the first time for a lot of the people and the all come back for more.

Join us next year.

Rich we missed seeing you and your wife this year maybe we will cross paths somewhere this coming year, I made a few changes this past year, getting close to where I'm going with it, it has been a fun journey.
