    What really made the weekend for us were the people. Yeah, Saturday's racing was a blast (we both won) but it was the laughing until your belly hurt all day that was totally awesome.

    We thoroughly enjoyed things like Gee Dubb telling stories (like the hundred-light-Honda and bringing beer through Canadian customs) If you haven't enjoyed a good Gee Dubb story, you don't know what you are missing.

    We had a pair of honest to God umbrella girls in the next garage (really? Where do you find those? Craigslist?) that I tried to borrow to come to grid with my battered 1986 Civic (which would have been awesome had the damned thing started Sunday), we had Mickey and his Russian bride, who left my ribs aching. There were some bawdy stories and remarks involving country western songs, that I won't repeat here. The people from SJR were so friendly and upbeat, it really made the weekend.

    If it wasn't for the drudgery of slogging through NJ, we would be up for going more often. While it sucked that the car decided to be obstinate, we still had a great weekend.

    Mickey, whoa nice save on the first lap!
    After watching more, looks like you decided to challenge yourself in the sandy clay soil a couple of times.
