Tennessee here I come
Thats Right, effective December 1, 2004 I will be transferring to the General Motors Plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee. The decision was not easy but it was an opportunity that I could not pass up. The logistics of the move along with my upcoming surgery next month was the #1 reason I had to stop racing when I did. I will however continue to spend time here on the forum promoting all the Corvette Challenge series and giving Edgar some heartburn to keep the series growing and headed in the right direction.
I'm looking foward to my time in the southeast.

John, I'm glad to have you coming down. I'll be a couple hours east of you but I'm sure we'll eventually meet up. I hope you're not giving up on racing alltogether though. If only you could bring Frank (Mojo) down here with you.......nah, maybe not. State aint big enough for both our ego's. We'll have to have some kind of welcome party for you.

Thanks, no I'll race again someday but for now racing is on the back burner. Fankie, has already told me that now I've got NO EXCUSE for not going to the cruise in next year. I'm looking foward to my next few years in Tennessee.
