Gentlemen, let me say this carefully but as a bit of explanation. I was on the salt and took some time to learn more about the entire 1100 electric car/team/driver(s)/etc. I did not meet Roger Hickey, but I did chat with some of the guys on the team. I saw them BEFORE the big hoo-hah. I talked with Jim Hoogerhyde, but then -- I talk with him quite a few times when we're on the salt. After all, he is the "other" Slim out there. Some officials got into my conversations, too. And my resulting comment to youse guys is:
I'm comfortable saying, with the knowledge that I have gathered, that it's not worth our time to guess, hypothecate, or pontificate. The personal aspects of racing are well-known to most, if not all, of us. Let's get back to bikes and cars, not personalities. Thanks.
