Joel my e-mail is [email protected], if you want my street address, e-mail me, don't wanna give it out on here.

Mel good to know that your still around. No its not a "person" that is keeping from racing, its school.

My "bagel cutter" as you call her (LoL) is wonderful. I have been dating her 5 and a half years, and never ONCE, has she kept me from racing, she's real cool about that. Maybe this summer she might even get one of them "sparklin'" thingies. Maybe.

Jake

PS Scott, are you gonna take that from Mel??? You'd understand if my girl kept from racing right? (It's George that I don't think would understand!)

Jake. I married my bagel cutter at age 19, between college semesters. Hence the reason that I have 2 and 1/3 college years, and the reason that I became a career Fire Fighter. Now that justs leads me to say that when they are young, they require more of your time for relationship upkeep, (which I might add is worth the effort). When they get older they realize that you are not the answer to all their needs, and they acquire a much more liberal attitude toward your desire to go off with the boys. After 41 years of marriage, my "bagel cutter" doesn't mind my need to go racing. I used to tell the young men that I worked with when they asked how I got to go hunting and fishing so often, that when women get older they don't care how often you are gone, and they sometimes don't care if you come back! So, invest the 40+ years and then let us know if you get to race as often as you want. Right now, invest in her needs equally and maybe at age 61, you will still have her pic hanging on your workshop wall, as does yours truly. (clarification: my bagel cutter is on my workshop wall, not your bagel cutter.)
Remember, I am still open to a trip to race somewhere in March.

Jake maybe after you finish college you will read my post again and realize what I said about your bagel cutter. I never said that your little bagel cutter wouldn't let you go. George glad to know you were a firefighter maybe you can hose Jake down so he will understand what I said about his little bagel cutter and his racing.
See Ya!

Hey Guys.....How ya all doing?Hey Mel,I almost didnt get to race in GB last weekend.I run 6 laps in practice and pulled off in front of myself also saying loudly that i was comming off,The guy next to me came out of the corner full boar and hit me in the rear soooo hard that it broke the bottom plate an my 13.I could have cried.Mike Ford had some parts and we were able to make a pod out of three sepeate ones that would work for the time beiing.Not so much as i'm sorry was said but,ya got one of those people everywhere.Jake,I understand what you are going thru,Since my divorce,the sky's the limit on my racing.I cant say i enjoy beiing alone but i enjoy the freedom to race.We are all going to the Soo in march so why dont you all try to make it up there.That would be a blast,Joel has a great program going and it's a blast.I know you(jake)and Mel know about the Soo but we need to get George and some others up there too.Well i gotta go now cause i've been sick with the flu for three days and my head gets fuzzy easily(lol).You all take care,be good to the Bagel cutters,and hope to see you all in the Soo.

PULL OFF IN THE FRONT STRETCH OF ANY TRACK. IT'S A SHURE WAY OF GET THE CAR PUNTED. ALWAYS DRIVE IT TO A CORNER WHERE IT IS RELATIVLY SAFE. NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU YELL WHAT YOU DOING YOU ARE IN THE DRIVING LANE.
NOBODY WILL BE HAPPY THEN.

We have NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER Had a problem anywhere else we went.When you say PULLING OFF IN FRONT then the others are aware.We were practicing not running a heat.Those guys were going full out and for what?It was practice.I have never rearended a car like that in my life and if i did i SURELY would say something to the other guy.We did have a great time there but some of the people there have to learn two words THROTTLE CONTROL.Besides,there were omly three of us running and the other person had enough consideration to slow down.In a heat race or a main then i was fair game but not in a practice.

Hey scott,

just to let you know our trophy race isn't until april 13th.

i'd love to have you guys here at our next race on the 16th but it won't be for the goods until april.

mel,
I keep flirting with your track record up here, today in 2 heats and the main I was on pace for it but stupidity got the better of me. In the 3rd heat I was on your 55 lap pace and about the 2 1/2 - 3 minute mark my pace started to slow due to someone hooking his battery up to the charger and forgeting to hit the start button.

Maybe next week........lol
At any rate the l3o works pretty good I guess, still scrubbing speed in the corners though, I think if I can get rid of that I might even be able to make the "A" at my trophy race.........not.

Later, Wigman

Now I know that 12 inches of snow can keep you off the road, but does it have to keep you guys off the boards? This is the first time this thread hit page two. I am 61, and my driveway is 1/4 of a mile long. I had to use the snow blower on it 3 times over the two day storm. That means adding up the in and out trips, I walked behind it a total of six miles. I was able to drive to Saginaw and back on Saturday, and to West Branch and back on Sunday. So when are we going racing?
Jake, make me an offer that I can't refuse. I have never been to Grand Rapids, Traverse City or Jackson. I will hook up with you for a day trip.
Scott, I might even go to the Soo if you will meet me in the middle of the bridge

I think that both of you have traded with Tim Weber before. I just made a trade with him. This is my second time with Tim, and I am really happy with the deal. It makes me wonder how two people can come away happy from an "even trade". I got stuff that I can really use, including (you guessed it) a Legend that I will have ready to trade.

HAPPY DAYS

See you guys on the board, or should I look for you under the snow. Wish I knew how to post pics here. I have a good one of the trees bowed down over my drive.
George

 

[rowle1jt]

Hey guys I'm not dead. I'm on Spring Break from school this week, so the "Bagel Cutter" and I are spending the week in chicago on the "magnificent Mile" pretty nice. Well George, you mail me that pic and I will put it up, and talk to everybody soon .

There will be an oval race in Lansing on March 17. You can find more info in the on road section under Mich. racing. Scott you will like the X15. Joel when track records are set a racer needs just a little luck to go along with a good car. Jake when you get back from Chicago do we start calling you "Gangsta Jake". I was there a few years back when they put green dye in the river for St. Patricks day. I guess they do that every year. Jackson College is this Sun. See Ya's

Mel (and everybody else),
The Lansing oval race is the 16th (saturday), with a road course race on the 17th (sunday). I don't think the X-15 will turn right very well.

Hey all.We are finalizing the details for the race in Escanaba and will be posting the dates here very shortly.We are going to have practice the night before so all are welcome to come and practice and get their setups down.Will post more as i get the info.Take care all.
