I will let the world know when we do the Test and Tune in several weeks.

Even if we have trouble.............

For certain it will be on Landracing.com first.

That's home for me...................

Thanks for the interest.

Doc:

Looks great. Nice memory of Ray.

Ray is still on the crew just observing the runs from a different perspective than us.

Targett 500 website is a "privilege to work site".

Ray would be on a permanent Sabbatical with full pay and forever benefits but he failed to mail the application.

I have altered the terms of his contract regarding the Sabbatical.

I found the application under the seat in the 'burrrrb.

I can over ride this oversight when we have the next company meeting but right now

we are ready to roll for the Test and Tune.

All he really needs is the Sabbatical and his Talking Book appliance. He has the Sabbatical by a

grandfather clause.

When he calls I will express everyones concern for him but he is doing GREAT.

Has anyone seen his glasses? He misplaced them at the GNRS.

I LOVE that man.

Web Master, Clare Sanders posted another foto on the Target550.com site.

I think you will like it.

Interested in a foto like that. I could have them at Speed Week.

We could use the funding on Rufus, the PR vehicle for the 'liner project.

Hey Freud.
I know I'm not the only one who appreciates the effort you gentlemen have put forth to make the Treit and Davenport Streamliner project come to fruition. I'm not sure if I'm more excited to meet you and your team, (and witness the maiden, angry run of Target550) this weekend, or to push my team and myself with our project, and benefit from this TnT.
At any rate.., I humbly offer whatever support we can give. We are locals, and if you fellas need anything that might be found in Salt Lake City, it would be a pleasure to assist.
We will begin arriving Thursday by noon.

Abe, it is people like you that add so much enjoyment to our project.

Sometimes we are so absorbed by the project that we lose connection

with those around us.

Thanks for your support.

We hope to provide enjoyment to all of our fans.
