10 years ago today--U.S. Class Nationals

Jeremy was the brains behind that, trust me, we wanted to make sure everybody was paired. What a great event, but his weekend at Columbus seems to be as hot.

Joe, I was 10 years younger then and the heat didn't seem quite as bad.

I had a kidney stone that weekend, (and was less than friendly to several folks) , but I still consider it a great event.

Best fun..we didn't have a car together. Never forget the [just around the corner] 3 mile golf cart ride to Teuton's country club well after dark...and BACK! Bill Brewbaker..Lynn Balek..Rick Johnson

Now I can finally forgive you, Bret! :~) LOL!

Dave,,, I remember seeing coverage of the event in a magazine also,,but I can't remember what title. SS&DI ceased existance in May of '99,, so, it was obviously another publication, since the race was held in July of '01. Still,, it was a fun weekend.

I was hoping your trip to Cordova just deleted me from your memory!

(Anticipated response: "WHAT trip to Cordova"? LOL!)

Adger Smith · 07-22-2011, 07:52 PM

Sorry Bret, even a trip to Cordova couldn't erase you from my memory. Can't forget good times and good people!! Besides I was a gimp guy that weekend ,too. Remember I was working the lanes from the back of a 4 wheeler. Couldn't walk real good...That was the first time I got out of the house after being patched up from the Cordova "experience" :~)
I did enjoy the USCN. I would like to do it again.
How many of you guys would show up again if I rented the track @ Gilliam La. and had a USCN Reunion race?
