Rod & Dale...
Good for you.=C2=A0 With out question, MID-OHIO is worth the long tow (perf=
ect for our cars).
Early on in Beady Eye Vintage Triumph racing, Don Brick, Bob Wismer, and I =
had a list of tracks that we wanted to race just to say we've done that one=
.=C2=A0 Early on Watkins Glen was a biggie on that list, but it was a sixte=
en hour tow from our location in the Midwest.=C2=A0 Well, we did it, and we=
 liked it so much that we did it sixteen years in a row.
When we could, we'd tow in tandem, and maintain contact with CB radios.=C2=
=A0 Listening to audio books was always my crutch for long tows. =C2=A0
Absolutely put MID-OHIO on your list.=C2=A0 Start making plans.

 Hi, I just wanted to express our gratitude to the FOT people who are charg=
ed with making the location choices for the cup. I don't know if we would h=
ave ventured back east for our initial kc event, so the west coast race mad=
e it easy for us being from phoenix. I am afraid we are hooked now and will=
 indeed make some long tows. It was an absolute pleasure meeting so many tr=
 racers, and how great it was to talk with Mr. Kastner to remember my first=
 dealings with him and Carl Swanson when I first started racing our 6. I wa=
s especially relieved that he didn't chastise me for so blatantly copying h=
is paint scheme. Hopefully he knows its because of the spell it put on me w=
hen I first saw Carl driving it at Phoenix international in early 70's! It =
was also great to see all the Mueller pictures and meeting John and his mom=
. Lee was also a big influence in my early SCCA days and lent a hand severa=
l times at Riverside, Holtville and anywhere else where he saw we could use=
 some friendly advice. He was a true racer's racer. Also high on the list o=
f=C2=A0 true racers there was Joe Huffaker. If there is a nicer guy on the =
planet, I don't know who he could possibly be. I raced with him for years i=
n SCCA, and he has always been not only the consummate racer, but all round=
 good guy.=C2=A0 I want to say in closing=C2=A0 we had a great time and jus=
t want to thank everyone who made it possible. We look forward to making it=
 to more events.=C2=A0 Rod and Dale Kent __________________________________=
