We've been at the wonderful celebration at the Nearburg pit. Best of all -- Bill Summers CALLED and spoke with Charles. What a great piece of history we've seen. I took photos -- will get 'em here in a minute or two. Nothing else going on right now -- still working on the Ack bike. Back with pictures in a minnit.

And that's it for right now. Still waiting for the Ack Attack team to let us know what they're doing. Oh, yeah -- when asked about what's next for the 1122 team -- Charles reports it's time for steak and champagne -- further thoughts on the car come later, after the celebration.
You folks out there in internet land -- sorry you weren't here in person. I hope you were able to share some of the excitement we all felt today.
