[Fot] Thank you Henry and FOT

 Just a quick note of thanks to Henry and the team for a great event last week. Being the new guy, it was great to race at a track that's always been on my bucket list and to put faces to the names of so many of you.
The car (#75 Halkias PLN) misbehaved quite a bit and the hot laps I was able to run were minimal. Then, in the final, just as I was starting to feel things in the car, the throttle linkage broke. (This was after an alternator failure, a throttle cable failure, a stuck throttle, etc... Drove one session with stuck throttle. Imagine braking and gassing at the same time for 20 minutes there.)
I had help with all these issues and want to thank Jerry VanVlack (my Triumph Godfather), Bob Lang and Ned Sparrow especially. I learned a lot from these guys. I also want to thank my paddock neighbors, Claude, Todd, Dave and Lyman for their help and patience as I'm sure we were bugging them at some point. A couple other guys came by to help but they came and went before I found out who they were. Thank you if one of them was you.
It was fun and the event was run flawlessly from my viewpoint. Congratulations to the winners. Again, well done Henry and team!

 Here's my video from the KCup race. While not in the thick of things for 
all that long, there is some fun with Bob Lang and Alex Amys, after an 
exciting start. There was also a little traffic out there to get 
through!  :-0

I was gridded 9th and finished 5th. Or 4th, if they penalize the dark 
blue #18 Spitfire for passing under yellow on the last lap or so!
