[RICK LAKE]

Clois Harlan and friends, This was the best R&G I have been to. I have been going since 93. Every one got plenty of track time, a couple of cars got nicked but repairable. The 4 days went off without too much trouble, we only used 1 mulligan on wednesday. The biggest thing was the Dinner. The food was great. Operation Comfort and the donations that came in where 50% more than last year. I had a job this year and donated myself. The money doesn't say enough to these soldiers that protect us and defend this country. Jay may have to come out of semi retirement and go back to work now that he is feeling better. We did miss some of the crew that had come many years before. Lew, Bob S, Randt S, and hoping maybe next year they will return. I came away with new info on motors and racing from the day of meetings. Again a great job. Hersch Bird the skirts where the best ever. I don't know how you are going to top this??? Rick L.
