Thanks. You guys are too much. It was so great to meet you all in person this weekend. Looking forward to FC 04. Got my fingers crossed for Watkins Glen!!!
Just remember, when the young kids act like you're over the hill, you are actually Vintage!!
Deb...You're a Fairbanks! Too wild. I used to live about 3 miles from that house. Now I live about 10 miles away. It's still looking good.

Hey, that is cool, Bill! It's a neat place to visit. Glad it's still standing - LOL. There is a curator who keeps it looking good for visitors. Lots of history there! Relatives of John Fayerbanke (first generation from Yorkshire, England) established the first post office in Boston. Dedham was originally called Contentment, and was the second town after Concord to be founded in MA.
Sorry, got off topic there!! Back to congratulating Bill!!!!!

Congratulations Bill! Smooth is FAST.
Side ways looks cool for the spectators and is fun for the driver, but any time one is sideways one is scrubbing off speed. Unlike Olympic figure skating it is not subjective. One does not get bonus points for saving or controlling a four wheel drift! The "CLOCK DOES NOT LIE"
The Vintage aspect reminds me of the old joke about the young bull and the old bull (the enthusiasim of youth, versus the wisdom of age and experience). If anyone does not know it PM me as it is a bit off color.
Again Congratulations BILL

Since I was stuck down here in the sub-tropics, give me some details! What does non-race prepped mean? OEM tires, sway bars, etc.? Is there a link to the results somewhere? I'm bummed to have missed all the fun.
Maybe we should have a "Winter Colors" (=green) tour down here!
Congrats Bill!
