If I can ever get myself healed up enough. I’ll be back. It’s still my goal to make the show at Indy. I don’t care if I get creamed and I probably will. I still want to say I did it. I know I was only in stock a short time. Just got hurt at work. I haven’t quit or retired. I’m still buying parts to make the car better. Even if I can’t drive it right now. Two more surgeries to go. And hopefully I’m ready by spring.

I predicted that having AHFS in force would turn a sizzling event into just another race with the exception of having a bigger car count. And I was correct .. That's too bad ..
