I came,i saw, i did not conquer at The Maxton Mile. You might think i'd feel 
totally bummed as my K/GL #440 (as pictured on  landracing.com,thank you Bill 
and Dee Bennett) ,failed to perform this weekend,especially after driving 
1357 miles and 22 hrs round-trip from NY,right ?  Wrong !  I can't begin to 
relate the positive experience of finally meeting face-to-face the people 
i've been communicating with Cyber-ly for so long. John Beckett,Joe 
Timney,Keith Turk, Chuck Rothfuss, and both the ECTA people and the Racers 
all made it a almost perfect day.The weather was perfect,i passed Tech,met 
some great people,what else could ask for? So my voo-doo drivetrain weirded 
out on me,but i'll be back.My time slip was 42 mph,and i  mentioned to a 
group including Hot Rod's Dave Freiberger that how many racers will prolly 
more than triple there trap speed (hopefully) on there next trip to Maxton.   
      And,everything you've heard about Turk is true. The suit,the 
coke,girly-car,et al. And he dragged along a few fellow Alabamians,total of 
3,entire graduating grade school class of the 90's...........Seriously,the 
event,the people,the machinery makes me quote Keith "Life IS 
good"................Thank You ......Bob Wanner
