Yes, we're still alive and kicking. There's a lot of waiting going on right now -- waiting for this and that. I hear that the leo Hess Kuryakyn bike is waiting to make a run -- it's not here in the pits. Ohio State has got repairs being done on their hurt electric motor - is planning putting the car back to gether tomorrow and running Friday morning.
Sam Wheeler and bike are in the pits with the cover off the bike, Ack Attack is in the pits with the cover off the bike.
Ray Buck is in front of our pickjup taking a photo a photo of me waving at him.
Nish is getting ready to put the car IN the trailer (to go back to SLC, I presume. Burkland car is in the pit with covers off -- though I know that Tom likes making late-in-the-day runs, so maybe they're just hanging around and doing work. By the way, Betty gave Nancy and me a tour of their hauler/RV and the trailer. Gee, what a nice way to go racin'. Seating for three in the Freightliner, sleeping for three, too. Water heater, shower & potty, 'fridge and freezer, NO air conditioning (those Montanans are tough!). The trailer is about as slick as you'd expect from a class operation like the Burklands, too -- everything is there -- compressor, grinder, drill press, room for the race car and the custom push truck, and on and on.
Super.
OK, I hear that Leo is getting ready to run within ten - fifteen minutes. I'll post this and get ready to let you know what's happening. Tell your bosses that you've gotta go back to important stuff. I hear a "five minute warning" on the FM.
Speaking of that, thanks to Mike Cook for giving us the FM. It makes it easier for us to keep up. I've had to pay for it, though -- I'm the pit area course worker -- chasing people around to make sure everyone is out of the way before a run.
Post it, Jon!
