Re: Bacon going wing racing next year

Why didn't you bid. I'm surprised you didn't take a big rsk to prevent a "knucklehead" from getting the track......perhaps the guy who could get the money to buy the track is not the knucklehead ? :)

Fatheadz is still on the car and the relationship continues. Rico Elmore is a huge supporter of auto racing on many levels. I feel privileged to call him a friend.
