    I think it was nerves Mikey. By the end of that P mono heat it looked like you had settled right in.

MInd you now that dave is one of the best drivers in the country and has probably the best P-mono I've ever seen, so I don't feel bad being "taken to school" by him like Jim "broken boat" Osborne said!!!!! And BTW "The High Plains Drifter" is the moniker I got at the Nats this year, Partly because my Orange boat would unexpectedly "drift" into others lanes, but probably more because my P-Lim mono (black CF Titan 40) that going down the back stretch would "drift???" (OK I did it) to lane 1/2 or 1/3 and consequently shutting the door on Jim and Dave and Ted (who were all coming hard in one race or another). I really had a blast racing w/ all those guys, there wasn't a Lot of competition there but the drivers that were there were all fierce competitors!!! Oh and for the record the picture of me leaving w/ my (girly) bag was a little skewed, the polka-dots were white not PINK!!! nice photo shop job JIM!!!
    All I have to say Pags, is Dave made me do it. It was great fun!
