Hey Urmil-

VOTA Racing is a new race team based in the Chicagoland region and has select members around the country. This team is based around SCCA ProSolo, Solo II and several other forms of organised and officially sanctioned racing, based around the S2000 and other high performance Japanese and European sports cars.

The name is not unheard of. If you get one of us face to face, we'll tell you what it's derived from.

Please talk to me and Greg about this venture on Saturday. I have a feeling you may be interested in joining us on this endeavor.

We can do this...

Sounds like some sorta shooka-shooka secret society, like skull and bones or something. Do you guys have to kiss the airbox cover?

You can probably guess I'm jealous!

Well, it's not really a clandestine secret society...but it's kind of an exclusive Chi-town thang...it may be something that we open up to others, in fact, it probably will, so they can join in the frivolity. Until then, unless you know the secret handshake...well, you know.

It's actually one of the funniest things that has come up in S2000-land lately.

Makes me do this ------>

And a little of this ------>

And most importantly this ----->

Since Des Moines is the furthest-western suburb of Chicago (and since I grew up in Chicago), can I join?

There is a rigorous initiation that you have to go through. When are you coming into the City?

Oh yea - VOTA Racing makes me do this....

Since I think I am qualified to be the first east coast representative (and will be in the Windy City on Tuesday), can I go thru the super secret initiation?

If it helps, I already know the legend that is VOTA (blame Stevens)!

We'll have to take that under advisement and I'll have to consult the other members to see what their thoughts are...


It'll be one of these two ----->
