All,
Let me say again, a BIG THANKS to ALL of YOU. Seriously, you are the ones that make it happen by paying your registration early and for showing up, and enjoying it. I'll pass along the comments to Bob/Linda for setup and registration and to John Marsey and the whole Track Team as well. My only regret is I was running around like a dingbat again this year (yes, like last year too) and had little time to spend with all of you. This will be fixed next year. I've already assigned function managers now for the '08 Drive, the '08 Car show, and there are more to come for other functions like organizing the evening gatherings even more. I went a bit casual this year to try it. This approach will allow me to help see the forrest and spend a bit less time down at the trunk of each tree. I want to spend more time with all of you there next year. It was truly great seeing all of you for a few seconds here and there though, and just knowing all of you showed up and had a great time makes it all worth it for me. Those pictures from Dick Sheehan (and his wife) above are just PERFECT! Oh my gosh, I love those pics. Hiliarious seeing you guys there together.

Uwe & Karin,
Thanks again for being such great attendees and supporters of this gathering. Plan on some local drives this summer too. Maybe you guys can join us at Portland Historics in July for a dinner out or something too.

Brent & Sheri,
Thanks for making it even without the Cobra. Next year, if you want to borrow my trailer somehow to get it there, you can. As long as its there for emergencies at the Bash, its yours to use to get your car there and home. Now getting the trailer back to my place might be anohter challenge. Oh well, dumb idea I guess but still thinking of you and your Cobra.

Pete,
Absolutely, and you were at the core of something new and great. Everyone is raving about the great job all of you guys did at Track Day. I have to individually thank ALL of you guys again. Additionally, it has been great to hear that all of you had a great time too and so many comments from the track team saying they want to do this again next year. Awesome. I owe you guys dinner out in the Cobras soon.

Pat,
Thanks for being there and joining in on the fun again. Yeah, it has been more than a few can handle; I'm toast right now, took the day off, and enjoying all the great emails and pictures. As for your questino, as soon as I can figure out a more streamlined way for registration, and can hopefully negotiate the same spots/locations again, we'll be opening up registration. Thanks for bringing that up, I'm excited that you guys are asking about '08 already. Much appreciated... helps us keep it going.

Rick,
I hope you can make it in '08. What a pleasure it would be to just attend and relax at your event. Maybe we can put our heads together next year to help make WSCB and LCS as much improved for each reagion as possible by learning from each others successes and mistakes. Idea sharing is good! Thanks again Rick for all of your continued support.

Tom,
Hey thanks! It was great seeing you and how it all worked out for you and the car. Awesome. Thanks for helping get the word out at the car show about Orozko too. See you later...

Morgan,
Thanks again for your participation and support with John on Tech and Track preparation. He has just been raving about how focused and supportive you were to him. It's a big deal to me knowing it was a BIG deal to him. Thanks a million Morgan. Yes, John has selected you for his trio subteam next year to provide overall organization and oversite. I just have to keep my fingers crossed the track owner will give us the same deal next year. John will keep you posted. THANKS!

Ed,

Thanks for being such a great supporter and for your constant communications to others about WSCB and what this is truly about. It's guys like you who make it focused and real with your enthusiasm and support of others, like your support of Ken Pike too. You got Ken there, he came, met more people, and more paint jobs and on and on. You are right, this is starting to become like a big family. People have said that before, but I never really came to the point of actually seeing it until just now. This is very cool.

And,
I'll just say thanks again to anyone else who replies here. If we can just manage to do as well as we did this year for next year, I will be happy, and hopefully we can.


THANK YOU VERY MUCH EVERYONE, and to our team. Bob (VP), Linda (Treasurer), John (Track Day Director), the whole Track Team (RCSC), and everyone who contributed. We really do appreciate all of your comments and feedback. Bob and Linda are moving from Idaho to California, and they enjoyed it so much too, they will be back for '08 - Thank goodness, I could NOT do this without them.
