It's nice to have friends

Just wanted to thank the people that made it possible for my gang to race in Boise (and get home). The engine in my motorhome expired just before Ontario, Oregon on the way to Firebird (about 60 miles to go) AAA towed the bus to the track, Boise Valley Towing (Dick Vandermeer) came on a minute's notice and picked up my stacker. Arriving at the racetrack on two tow trucks was a new experience but we got parked and set-up; only 2 hours late. We raced, went a few rounds, not a bad weekend...how do we get home?? Mick Alley to the rescue! Mick and Jackie loaned me their motorhome to tow my stacker home, (511 miles! ) Did I mention that Mick and Jackie won with both their cars (Stock and SS, very cool). They ran home (after pictures of course), dropped their trailer, unloaded the motorhome and came back to the track, helped me hook up and sent Dallas, Steve and I down the road (about midnight). It's nice to have friends. Thank you so much. TT
