Ray, that's what I miss most about being out of the hobby and the club. What a great group of guys who truly care about sharing the joy of their hobby with others. I truly value their friendship and hope I was helpful too.

Scott,

How many members in the club now? It's great to see it grow!

Jim

Just emailed out the new list. 24 current members, 20 or so which are active, 2 of them snowbirds and 4ish who we dont see often anymore, you included.

Folks,

Just wanted to say how "Proud" I am current members.to be a member of this club. Rarely do you see a group so willing to share info with the new guys, fellow competitors or anyone else for that matter.

The turnout today was absolutely amazing.

That it was Ray. And I could not agree more. I quit racing cars because of the hush hush about info and.... snobiness to be poilte, of most of the competitors, especially when you as the new guy would place top 3. Takes the fun right out of it. We do have an amazing group and I hope it continues to grow. We even stay up late to charge batteries for fellow members when they ask, even if they decide they arent going to run them...... just playin Ray, I enjoy giving you a hard time.

Helpful????? If not for you and Mike, we wouldnt be here...... thank you Jim for starting something so great.

It was truly my honor to start the club and I am so gratified to see it growing. I just wish it wasn't so far away for me to pop in and say hi from time to time. 1.5 hour drive in each direction, the cost of gas, and my physical condition have kept me pretty close to home these days.

I wish only the best for the club and all the great members.

I just visited the website stats page and our projects page is downright popular. Of the 141 visitors so far this month (as of yesterday at 9:30) The projects page is at the top of the list with 42 visits. 2nd & 3rd goes to the contacts and main page @39 each. The atats counter has something wrong with it though. It shows 12 hits on the stats page and this is the 1st time I've been this month. Hmmm I wonder if it counts itself as a hit when it runs the stats update.

Happy B-Day Bill!

Thanks for the b-day wishes everybody
We'd have to get a burn permit to fire that cake off.

On the mono, it's not the chopping block yet. More of on the "ignore list" at the moment.
