Hi Wayno, I knew it was bad timing when I saw the problems you were having with the tank, so I didn't hang around. I came back looking for you Sunday and again Monday but could not find you or the tank

. Lawrie said he saw you one of those two days. Those pits seemed to be over a mile long

. Once CRS set in, I couldn't remember where I had seen you. We were up at the starting line at Course 1 on Tuesday watching George Poteet run his Stream Liner and heard your name announced to run at Course 3 or 4 but didn't hear your time/speed. I looked up all the results last night on one of the websites and saw two or three of your runs with speeds listed. Sounds like you got that head gasket problem sorted out and ran good after that. Will see you the next time
