Hey guys/gals scheduling this year has been a bit of a challenge for me! I've been busy trying to complete all my work (pay my mortgage) and hobby work (suck my wallet dry ) in time to make it out to see you guys again this year.

There is a chance I may not be able to make it, but I'm doing my level best to make it happen.

If I don't see you all you can expect my support, as much as I can give, and the support of others I'm affiliated with.

My wife and kids have been hounding me to come out with me to Ohio this time . I told them about all the things we saw when we went out there last year. AND I owe some folks some tee shirts, micro bars and beers and I do my best to keep my promises especially when it comes to beers !!

Pat email me tskyers-at-skyrocketracing.com.

It would be great if you could attend again this year.....we sure had a good time last year and enjoyed all the fun. Scooby's car was real good in OnRoad too! But, I do understand if you can't make it with all you have going on right now.

Hey guys I had an interview yesterday and there is a possibility that I may have another one tomorrow so I don't think I'm going to be able to make it out this year.

I really expected to make it out but I'll be sure you guys have some give aways from us. There is still a chance that I may be able to leave on Saturday so I'm still planning for that possibility.
