Jay, I have been a member since the 60s. =C2=A0Very quietly.
Henry=E2=80=99s reference was to the =E2=80=9Csilent horsemen=E2=80=9D. But=

It=E2=80=99s good to revisit the concept.

FOT:
If you read Henry Frye=E2=80=99s comments, which included a reference to =
=E2=80=9Cthe quiet horsemen=E2=80=9D, here is the story:

Very early on, Mordy Dunst and I discussed the image we wanted to present. =
I likened it to be like The Quiet Birdmen.=C2=A0 Low key, under the radar, =
while not being exclusive or elitist.

For the most part we have succeeded in being that.

With the Kastner Cup Series, that makes being low key hard to do. But I sti=
ll like the concept of the =E2=80=9CQBs=E2=80=9D.=C2=A0 Please read the the=
 Wikipedia definition and history of the QBs. It is entertaining, and you w=
ill note, that the QBs have evolved over the years, just as we have.

However, we remain a highly successful =E2=80=9Cnon-organization=E2=80=9D.=
=C2=A0 They said it couldn=E2=80=99t be done.=C2=A0=20

So there you have it: we are the QBs of the Triumph Racing World.=C2=A0 Som=
ething to be proud of, methinks.
