Regarding Bolton's departing flywheel:
I thought Kent dubbed in that noise as Mr. Bolton left the track at the
keyhole...pretty awful!
Well you will have to buy the tape to find out....everyone is represented in
the tape, btw. It is a good one.
Jack, Jim, & Joe will be taking orders for the tape when we go to Willow
Springs next week.
You should see that sequence of a SoCal guy spinning his car THREE TIMES! Of
course, the one spin was to leave the track, and the other two occured
getting back on..... :-)
