Oooh, good comment, Stainless.  I wonder if Freud will enjoy it, though...

Since I am deaf and dumb, it all seems like compliments to me.

If I keep my mouth open as I ride, the inflation factor will remove the wrinkles.

Mark, Freud is the most fun "legend" you will run into on the salt.  If you get a chance to get into a little trouble with him it will be worth the night you might spend in jail  :roll:  Stop at the long course timing slip station, you will find him there often, with another troublemaker Bret Kepner...

Stainless and other readers.......

It is my hope that Stainless is either misinformed or inclined to exaggerate.

Approaching this Holiday Season, I do not need to have any more of Glenn's

Bonneville antics brought to my attention.

I have concluded, he will never grow up. Just don't  open up another can of worms

regarding his "behavior away from home."

Isn't it marvelous that the Salt season doesn't start for another 9 months !!

I enjoy my time when he is gone but I always wonder if he will come home in a body bag

or worse than that, a hopeless cripple that I have to care for for the remainder of his life.

I want you to know that the antics Freuds "cohorts" refer to never slop over into how he treats me and my crew at Lands End.  Contrary to what you hear from the guys, he's just being one-of-the-guys!!  See if you can't get him to tell you about some of the antics the rest of them do!!  He's only trying to keep even with all of them!  He also is doing an excellent job in that regard!!  :evil: 
Please don't let the guys stop him from letting you allow him to come play with us!!  And, I'd love to see you out on the salt too!  If you've been waiting for an invitation, here it is!  Gotta love the little critter!!

Glenn is one of my greatest friends and of course we exaggerate about his antics at Bonneville.... (How was that Freud?  worth the $20 you promised)

I have been really busy last few weeks at A2 so I have not had time to write about the front fender question.  My #1 priority is A2, and I enjoy getting on landracing.com when I'm not busy to help give you guys some information about aero and inform about wind tunnel testing.  I will try to get something up this week in the other thread that was asked about the fender to help address the question.

There are 2 new videos featuring AeroDYN on ESPN (?quality?) on youtube if anyone is interested.
