Funny story...A guy named Mike calls me from Texas and says he's a Gear Grinder from San Antonio Texas. He's not an SCTA Gear Grinder, he belongs to the Gear Grinders car club in San Antonio, Texas. He wants to know if I can send him a Gear Grinder T-shirt and plaque and he would do the same. Which we did. That was just before Bonneville(which Sheri has worn every event since then). So Saturday a guy walks through my pit with a San Antonio Gear Grinder T-shirt on. And I say "Hey man, where did you get that shirt?" In which he replied that he got it in San Antonio and he's a member of the club there. So I said "Don't tell me that your name is Mike" and he said "No my name is Clarence" and he says that he knew the story about the t-shirt swap and he said as a matter of fact "I want to get a t-shirt and a plaque as well." So we made a deal, he bought two shirts, I bought him a plaque and he gave me a hat. He said he was there with his friend Jack and they had a long nose,severely chopped coupe that they were going to run. A couple of real nice guys that I really enjoyed talking with. They had to leave early Sunday, but it was a pleasure visiting with them and I look forward to seeing them in Bonneville in 2010.
It's a small,small world.
