Edgar, thanks again for all your efforts in making this possible and to a great bunch of fellow racers...

This indeed has been a fantastic day for me to pick up my first win since I started racing in the ECS Corvette Challenge in 2000...

Jim..

WaytogogreatjobJim I am saving space ...I hear you singlehandedly took out all of Westchester County.. Chris & Ralph

Well you know I'll be watching my behind if I get paired with you..

Again Nice job.. & a WELL earned win!

Oh yes... Eric ... not bad for a "Kid" your still a wippersnapper but a hellova good racer...

PS there's another thread.. stating the total combined age of both finalists...129 yrs.. does that have me and your dad beat? I think it makes me & your old man look like kids .. I'm 63..

It's close. You and my Dad met in the August '04 finals. I think he would have been 66 at the time.
