[Shotimes] AutoX at Rantoul a good time, thanks John Stout!

[Donald Mallinson]

Just wanted to report that there were three SHO's at the 
Rantoul IL autocross today (Saturday).

Unlike the last time Ken and I went, this time the old man 
was one step ahead of the kid all day.  Wound up beating him 
by about a second.

There is something to be said about youth and enthusiasm 
versus old age and......treachery, plus a BOS, plus race 
tires, plus a Quaife....

OK, so my "victory" is tainted, but I will take it anyway!

John Stout and his friend arrived from deepest Southern IL 
and it was their first autocross to drive at!  They both did 
great and I think they had a good time.  It was good to see 
them again.  Sure sorry John can't make the CA convention 
this year.

Again, the SHO's were not among the slowest cars, but not 
the fastest either, but we did impress a few people.  And 
nobody had more fun.
