List,
Just a quick note on Dan the man Warner. He took me aside at the World
Finals last year and gave me some really good ideas on rear spoiler mods for
my hot rod. This was unsolicited, he just wanted to help and I took him up
on his suggestions. The new spoiler is bigger and lengthened the car overall
for better aerodynamics. It's folks like him that make this type of sport
what it has become and I'm glad to be part of it. Being a couch potato this
week, should be running hard at the salt, didn't want to work so here I sit
making plans for a fast 2001, reading list talk,
In the very cloudy, damp and cool Pacific Northwest,
Dave Haller #93
