Default Thanks everyone

I just wanted to thank everyone for your kind words and get well wishes. I hope to be posting more as my vision improves, and no I won't be stiring the pot, you guys do a good enough job on your own and things look to be headed in the right direction. I very proud of the job Edgar and Bobby are doing with the series and I know it will continue to grow.

Again thanks to all, hope to see everyone again someday.

John

Your driving force will always be here. I know Edgar will carry the torch but its going to be tough to match what you already did!

Brian, that means alot to me coming from you, I just took your ideas and the racers allowed me to have the series grow. It all about their support along with all the sponsors.
I know Edgar, will do a great job till us old timers can get back into the series full time.
