Good post Drewbie :thumb

The Great:

1) Watching the first two nights' with Ted Bacon. He HAD TO BE the coolest guy in the building.
2) Walking the Expo pits' with K. Eckert. That's almost like walking Sunday Mass with the Pope.
3) S. Eckert, laying odds on Chili Bowl drivers'. Almost impossible and Steve nailed it.
4) Mills giving me a great deal on some DVD's. THANKS:thumb
5) Getting a couple minutes to talk to Morty, Debby and Drew. I look forward to that at every race I know their attending.
6) Hanging with the Frolic crew. That's always a great time.
7) Hanging with Jimmy Jones and meeting Tray Rob. They tell me to keep an eye on this 16 year old on the ASCS Tour this year. Good luck Tray....
8) Getting to talk to Kelly, Leon, Blake, Shane, Hockett and Ballou.
9) Meeting Tyler Walker. Good luck in California this year. See Ya at the Grove...
10) Stopping on the way out and hanging on Lake Ozark with Eckert and Eric Schrock...
11) hell Aero, I didn't drink 5.0 for about 8 months...
12) I'm tired of typing, Ect. Ect. Ect.......

The Bad....

1) Driving 2601.4 miles/42 hours round trip:checkered:

P.S...there was some pretty good midget racing going on in the middle of all this.

P.S.S..I have to add, the ride from Indy to the Chili Bowl and back to Indy was cool. Driving with K. Eckert and listening to the Knowledge, from drivers to car owners to crewman to sponsors to family members to track owners was just (to me) mind boggling. Listening to Kevin talk is as easy as reading one of his columns. His stories just flow, one leads right into the next. So thanks Eck, for making 25 of my 42 hour trip go alot easier:wink.
