Last time I was able to to the TNT tour was a couple years ago,when they had the OKC fairgrounds track on the schedule, followed by Tulsa. (RIP)
You never know who you'll run into on trips like that,and I was sitting in the Tulsa grandstands and Court Grandstaff wasnt sitting all that far from me. Court e-mailed me many years ago when Brooke Tatnell was first announced to drive his Trop Artic 66 sprinter, and wanted to know where he could learn more about Brooke,seeing it was the off season at the timehere,and racing season was well underway in Australia.
I finally met Court in person for the first time at a NCRA/ All Stars race at Haubstadt the following season After that I would usually see him at Knoxville for the Nationals etc. That day at Tulsa Speedway though,when I walked down to get a cold Coke, I said hi to Court on the way by. Surprised to see me there,he said "Andrew you are a LONG ways from home this time"!
