54, eh? What a coincidence.

Tell you what, Bruce: you make it out here next year and I'll take you to the track for a couple of days. I'll put your butt in the Rotax, and if that isn't fast enough for you, I'll put you in my shifter. We, er, "mature" guys don't have to go slow...but we are better off lower to the ground. The best line about age I ever heard was from Warren Miller, the ski movie guy. He said, "Show me a guy who can honestly say that at 50 he's as good a skier as he was at 25, and I'll show you a guy who probably couldn't ski worth a s**t when he was 25."

Back to topic: is Jeremy going to jump right on this for you?

Me too.....i'm sure there will be some type of dramatic ending to this docudrama, like the car just explodes into thin air after running a 9.0 on the first pass.....anything else would just be boring at this point.

instead of exploding, i think it being able to go back in time like the DMC in "back to the future" would be better...

HAHA word filter FTL



At a side, hope things get back on track. Be glad that winter is on its way, so at least you can take the time to make sure everything is perfect and not rush as before.
