HEY EVERYBODY

We're home now. The season has come to an exciting close with a big win at Atco, our last race of the year. The race in Reading, PA didn't go as well as we'd hoped it would, we lost in the second round. We were able to make the rescheduled Atco race the following weekend, so Ed & I stayed in PA for the week before driving to Atco. On Monday while we finished loading in Reading, Doug Foley had his drag racing school at the track & I was offered the opportunity to get in & go for a ride in his two seater dragster. WOW-what a great experience. Thank you so much to Doug & his driver Jeff. Wednesday, we did a display at the Bordentown, NJ Petro Truck Stop on our way to Atco. We arrived at Atco on Friday to set up & the weather was beautiful, the sun shined all weekend. Tommy was due to leave for Afghanistan on Wednesday of the next week, it was great to get a win at the final race of the season for a multitude of reasons. We wish Tom the best & safe return. Looking forward to seeing him in the beginning of March & getting ready for our return to racing action at the Gatornationals soon after that. Monday we left the racetrack & visited a TA Truck Stop in Paulsboro, NJ where we displayed the racecar. Tuesday we drove to Whitestone, NY to speak on Wednesday at the Lincoln Technical Institute located there. After a great visit at LTI Ed & I headed back to Cape Cod. We're now home & preparing for the 2011 season. Cleaning the shop, getting the car out of the trailer, & getting ready to head to SEMA next week in Las Vegas.

Will update again soon, thanks for checking in.
