Hey Guys myself and Mark Harrison will be running the Gravity Racing at Lightning Fest. Bring your fast JL's to win the first gravity cup should be alot of fun. I want to let all of you know that are planning to race. Whoever takes the trophy with the fastest JL can mail it or leave it with me to race at our August meeting for the Camaro Challenge. Check out our clubs website at www.ljlrc.com or find us on Facebook Lincoln Johnny Lightning Race Club. Cant wait to meet some cool JL Collectors only a few weeks away.

Like to thank all of the LF Team (some we didn't even see), for all that they did putting on LF for us!

They all had various duties in hosting the LF Event. This being the 3rd one hosted in Dyersville, they always have shown enthusiastic participation in the LF Event.

Can't thank them all enough and of course Tom "Z" for continuing the LF Event every year.

Thanks :thumbsup:

With all the activities at LF, some will be missed, don't know how many times I passed Russ (roasting in the Sun) before I was able to say hello.

There was one or two that I saw that I know didn't get a chance to say hello to.
Got a chance to meet some and get to know others more!

Like to thank those of you who stopped by Friday night, it was great seeing everyone in the "lively art of conversation".

Thanks :wave:
