Absolutely have to agree with the assessment of Big Bob. A couple of years ago, we had the discussion about getting in touch with Phil and Bob really went to work and, as a result, we have had a lot of fun socializing with Phil and listening to all the great stories.

Phil's daughter, Kati, has often mentioned to me how much Phil really respects Bob and how Bob can get Phil to do things that no one could ever convince him to do. The SAAC 27 episode is one. Without Bob, Phil would not have gone to that event and participated in any of the events.

Phil is getting into the history of all this, too. I think he has awakened to the fact that he did contribute something significant to Motorsport. I think before he hooked up with Big Bob, it was all just ancient history.

Despite all these kudos for the "Tall One", I just want you to know, Bob, that I still have first right of refusal on the trophy.
