Re: "Silver State" 70 mile race

There were two fatalities in early events...

That  was before they did stringent tire speed rating inspection, and 
one of the big reasons behind the much tighter prep rules and speed 
classes they enforce now.

Congrats on doing the event, Bob. I think just going down there to see 
it would be a great experience, but running in it and finishing would be 
on another level altogether.
