Thanks RJ, I appreciate the kind words.

About the check from '06, I will talk to Chris Blair this week and find out an answer for you.

Isn't it amazing how you can ask a question and get opinions on OTHER topics???

BTW, those NON classes that you speak of will account for about 100 - 120 entries, not 300.

And to answer Jeff's question...I will gladly run past 8PM if the CONDITIONS allow...oh, and having lights helps. But then again, it does cut into the cocktail hour...because that's what really matters.

Hey Mike

Thanks ...You know with an atitude like you have I may just have to make another trip out your way. Not only is it refreshing, its unbelieveable coming from a Division Director. Hope you never change.

Good Luck

Concerning payouts, since this thread has brought up the subject. I lost in the 5th rd at Phoenix Div 7 race recently and since I forgot to p/u my check the track graciously mailed a whopping $125 to me within a reasonable time. But, that is not the point of my first post in 7+ years and most likely my last for another 7+ years. While admiring the check, I noticed that the written amount was for only $100 while the numerical amount was $125. Since the written amount takes precedence over the numerical amount I sent the check back with a note that it needed to be corrected since I didn't want to deposit it and have it bounce thus ending up paying a bank fee which would eat into my huge award for getting past guys like Passerby, T. Mandella (Phil's boy) plus Kadar!....getting rather difficult for a 60yr old to do. Well, as you might expect, since I am writing this post ....I'VE NEVER GOT MY CHECK!!!! Got bills to pay, mortgage to pay, need lunch table money with Clark, F&J Grossi, Bales etc. Come on Charlie get with it!

Stock, 5th rd 7002.........live close to John Force, maybe that would help!

Thank you......See you in 7 years, hopefully!

Sorry John, my hands were starting to cramp from all this typing and I had to leave (reluctantly I might add) out some of the dignitaries that come to the Centro Wed "Roast". That is why I ended with an etc. You of course are one of the mainstays that keep the "Roast" what it is!!

Jim, we had 4 checks that came back to us with wrong addresses, etc. I just verified that your check was incorrect on Monday, and a new one is being sent to you. Sorry for the delay. If you have any problems or questions, feel free to call me at anytime.
