thanks for posting results
I also went to the gazette and read the entire article. It is nice to see a local paper pick up a story like that. "i am impressed" with the gazette. It was also very well put together. kudo's to the author. I am also glad to hear Rick Shields is ok sounds like a very bad crash and frighting too. This was also a testiment to a well build vee grats to VDF for making a safe car as well as fast. Pete Cheney #06 narrc
Pete:
Rick's has bad luck this year! I heard he was taken out at VIR by another driver,
crashed out at Road America when his tie-rod mount broke and now at WGI...
Glad to hear he's okay and hopefully he can get this bad luck behind him before the Runoff's!......

Thanks to everyone for a great weekend.

Next time lets get a split start .
Arnie
FV #12
Hehe.. For a moment there I was a bit worried - my car is also number 12, and my dog's name is Arnie! What was he doing at Watkins Glen driving my car without permission?!
Sounds like a great weekend, we need to get more of those articles on local papers! Awesome publicity for the class, well done everyone
Congrats to Jonathan on Saturday and Roger on Sunday also Gary B you did a great Job Sunday great battle between you and Roger was great to watch, also a nice battle for third, nice job Russ for third and Arnie forth, I agee with you Arnie would have been better with spit start, Glad Rick was not hurt and did a good job in Jonathan back up car, saw him on sunday when we loaded his car he was pretty sore hope he is feeling better today.
