 Now , you probably realised you had me flumoxed for a minute or two when I ran into you at the 550 for a minute or so...because you don't have a Kiwi accent..I'm thinking ..."hang on, is this Graham Robinson? ( you'd know him yeah?..and you look just like him)......so that's why I didn't say anything smartazz to you for the first few minutes , had I realised it was you straight up I would have been a little more "friendly"....  Graham and I dug your camper , did the Scots like the thistle?

Busy day here in LA, we have been chaperoned around a bunch of custom shops and spent some time in the bowels of the Peterson, saw some really really great stuff, and some other stuff , non- site specific.
I think my body is finally going to adjust to the time here in the next day or so which is good because that's when I fly home......

Apparently I have been behind on my forum reading and missed coming up in conversation, still busy cleaning up and unpacking.  Thanks to all for the compliments on my bellytank, and it was great to meet you guys in person.  It has been a long road to finally get this thing race ready, and we had a blast on the salt.  Everybody we talked to no matter it being officials, other teams, or spectators was a great experience. 

Now I need a bigger flathead....but who doesn't.

If you care to check it out we had created a website to have a trip blog to keep people updated, but also has some pictures from speedweek and some youtube videos of runs. Nothing fancy, site is: www.vonwelker.com

Sucka Mucka Andy! your tank is a niiice piece of work. PO'd that I missed you at the salt.
The trip is so much of the adventure even without the reward of speed week.
I see you learned what a snow fence is!
