Brad,
Nice to have you on the list. Anyone who is able to go racing and keep up
with the Diet Coke and cigarette stock that accompanies Keith has to be
talented. I'm surprised Keith didn't offer to get you set up on the list
out of the goodness of his heart. I find having computer literate kids is a
huge help. I just heard from a G I helicopter mechanic friend who did
Desert Storm and makes it to World of Speed with my brother-in-law as a
course watcher. Lots of people who play with those flying windmills want to
go faster. Good luck with keeping up with grandpa there.
Wes Potter, Secretary USFRA
