Yeah, I thought the same. It seemed like that as soon as the trophies
were given out folks started to shove off. The *positive* side of this
is that it was nice to actually see the cars in action and hear some
beautiful engine noises! GREAT! Did you see the chap in his (blech!) orange
Morgan tri-car driving around? That was fantastic!

I copied this to the list, because I would also like to suggest a t-shirt
design. T-shirts are usually more visible than patches or stickers and
would be easier to look for in a crowd. However, patches are still a good
idea for those who like them. I just went through ordering several
orders of t-shirts for my soccer club I formed at work. We paid:
A ONE time charge for screen work (we provided our own art work)
of $25.00. This means you're not charged for this in subsequent
orders.
$5.25 per t-shirt, preshrunk 100% combed cotton. Must order
batches of six in one size and colour (you can order other
colours and sizes, of course, but only in multiples of six).
A small shipping charge (all shirts to one address) of about $3.50.
I can provide the supplier's name/phone number on request. I obtained a
few quotes (suppliers local to me) and those figures above were the best.
Yes, Ed, count me in as interested in whatever we end up getting. Thanks!!!
