Kent, I thought you might feel that way about my response.
A quick background of my history at El Mirage is I've gotten three folks into the dirty 2 club (9 into the Bonneville 200 mph club) with my engines. If you look at the 2004 results you'll see that Ed Van Scoy finished 2nd in the points for cars. He also managed to scrape into the dirty 2 club early in the year. What you may not know is that he had a cooling system problem at Bonneville which required a thrash rebuild to make the remainder of the El Mirage season. He didn't get much of a chance as the Sept. & Nov. meets were also rained out similar to this year. I know Ed didn't feel great about this but you didn't hear about it. Oh and by the way, Ed tows to El Mirage from Gilbert Az. just a tad farther than Vista.
And since the SDRC might have missed a Reps meeting last year you also might not know that the 2 day meet we had in May of this year was due to the weather problems we had last year. That group of guys & gals of the SCTA work very hard to give us "racers" a chance to race whenever they can.
So would you like some cheese with that whine?
P.S. Glad your going to enjoy the dirt this weekend. Hope you do well.
