Just Catching Up

Hey everybody!

Wanted to fill you in on what’s been going on in Dream Land. After we finished up the race in Lebanon Valley over 4th of July, the car came back to the shop and we started preparing for the second half of the season, as we were in a bit of a summer break. I took a couple of days off and hung out with my wife, Ann.

All was going well as we were preparing to head to Reading for the Toyo Tires Nationals. The Monday before Reading, I took a fall in the trailer, fell from the second floor to the first floor, split my head open, got a concussion, and an extremely sore knee. As I recovered, the team headed to Reading without me. Won best appearing crew at the event. Many thanks to Champion Systems for the great looking uniforms and all their support of the Follow A Dream Team. Lost in the quarter final round of eliminations and headed home. After the car got back to Massachusetts, the team got together, serviced the car and Ed Parker and I jumped in the rig and headed to Indy for the US Nationals. Got into Indy yesterday afternoon and visited a Texas Roadhouse Restaurant location in Avon, IN last night. We’re excited to get the racing started and look forward to a great weekend. Next Tuesday evening, Sept. 2 we’re going to visit the Texas Roadhouse @ 9111 N. Michigan Road, Indy before heading to Englishtown, NJ for another race next weekend.

This is an extended trip, as we’ll be on the road for the next several weeks. After the race in Englishtown next weekend we head to North Carolina for the Carolina’s Nationals at Lowe’s Motor Speedway in Concord and then on to Nashville, TN to speak at the 2008 SuperTech Competition on behalf of our sponsor Permatex. After that, I think we’re home for a couple weeks.

Stay tuned, as I’ll work on doing a better job of keeping you all updated in the days to come.

Have a great weekend!
