Wow, dreams DO come true!
Well, mine is shared with my dad. I've always wanted to race at Bonneville, and my dad has always wanted to manage a racing team. I asked him if he'd be willing to work for nothing and pull the trailer with his truck. Roger Penske wasn't returning his calls, so he said "yes"
Turns out he's been my constant motor-vation ever since we forged this alliance, has been dogging me as to how far along I am (that's his management style), asking good questions and making great suggestions. He's a former purchasing manager for Rockwell, and still has a ton of contacts in the aerospace industry. While he's not an engineer, his grasp on what we're trying to do and what it's going to take is sober and remarkable. He's intuitive, well read, and recognizes a mistake before I get a chance to make it. What's really great is that he knows what he knows, knows what he doesn't know, and if he doesn't know, he knows who to call.
So for both of us, what started out as two independent thoughts, turned into a shared dream, has become a project, and God willing, next August will become a reality.
The best part? My mom and my wife are both on board!
