Honored to Q this great group of guys.  Great showing all around by the PAX who all worked hard.  Kudos to Gator Cub for being so determined to post that he fought off a chain gate with his car in order to get there.  Kudos also to the 2.0s (Landshark, Flipper and Ranger), who were near the front so consistently that someone commented that it looked like I was running a day care.  Announcements:  1.  Old McDonald hosting a get together at his place this Sunday from 2 to 5 pm.  Let him know if you’re going to be there.  2.  Wetstone program is being re-launched.  Check the weekly emails for more information.  3.  There’s a Father’s Day 25% off discount for Sparton Race sign-up going on.  I was trying to find a link to it to include, but can’t.  Talk to Shop Dog if you want more information.
