Round 1-3 are all in there...There's no way to link to it directly because of the Flash interface.

Not quite, I ran across them in Missouri, had to stop at Conway(somewhere between Rolla & Springfield) & duck into a shelter for a little while, then continued on(albeit with a few small dents in my car from the hail). Made for one loooooonnnnngggg drive home, took about 16 hours to make it here....

Well, I'm home, no Frostbite. Bob, myself and the entire Novak Staff want to extend our thanks to everyone involved in the 2008 US Touring Car Championships.
-From the racers to the Trackside staff, you all know as well as we do, these things don't happen with out all of you. THANKS!

I think the race was a smashing success. There were few problems here and there, but nothing you don't see at "every" race.

I put a pinion on my motor on Wed. and never took it off. I forgot what it was come Saturday and had to pull it off to check.... LOL

Thanks to Scotty for being a good sport about all the racing. I actually spent a few hours each morning working on my car. Something I know he didn't have a chance to do himself. Last time he worked on his own car, he beat me by an entire main..... But You're only as good as your last run, so I Own You.....

Wes Wood, thanks for the rental car. That thing was super dialed, and I look forward to running Mini's every year now.... Nobody else could rock the 2 wheel motions....

Drew- Thanks for bringing me a car to rebuild. Thanks a lot......

To all the Novak Faithful - Don't worry, You won't be forgotten, I wrote all your names down in my Magic book. Expect good fortune and well wishes from the R/C gods....

Once again, we can't say enough good things about this event. Trackside does an awesome job and we couldn't ask for more. THANKS TO EVERYONE!

What a awesome race the TRACKSIDE crew put on..... again....

We'll to those who were wondering about me, I made it home and with 5 gallons of antifreeze/ water combo, limped it on home 650 miles. Brought it to the car repair yesterday- and told me it was the waterpump. And that shot out on Saturday night - I am glad it was only 32 degrees on the way home.

Charlie, I'll email ya and thanks for the help

later,
Bill Sydor
