if you insist on keeping those awnings on the top of your cars, how about Winged Litre Midget Association; WLMA...

I see them things as added protection from Ultraviolet Rays brought about by the thinning of the Ozone layer brought about by overzealous use of race race cars powered by internal combustion engines without proper emission control devices installed as per EPA regulations.

After spending time on the Left Coast I'm sure you understand. They teach it in Grade School, along with use of pocket calculators and Cursive Writing.

I say (quoting the 5th dimension) "Let the Sun Shine In".
I guess what I run is a NONWATOALM; NON-Wing A Tad-Over-A-Litre-Midget...
Sounds a little Native American, which our cars definitely are. Baseball, hotdogs, apple pie and NONWATOALM.
I think I need to leave work early today, I'm getting dingy.

Dad, I think cursive writing has been replaced in California Public Schools with no-score-keeping T-ball and Bamboo Sweater Knitting 101, among the many reasons I'm proud to be a Cali ex-pat, transplanted Hoosier...

Just me battling "Old Timers". Quoting George Bernard Shaw “You see things; and you say ‘Why?’ But I dream things that never were; and I say ‘Why not?’” . Sure fooled Me? (Sorry Bobby)

I guess you know that a "Hoosier" is nothing more than a "Kentucky Hill Billy" that ran out of money before they got to Michigan.

Ain't that right Ron and Bill.

Also congratulations to Andy. We have raced several laps together at Linton. Way to go on also being the car builder.

Did you race with a kid named Adam Nigg, I think he was from down your way also.

We race there a couple of time years ago, neat little race track. Best I can remember. I was told that Andy tried to make the straightway down there quite a bit longer one race.

Jim, the reason for dropping cursive writing is, it is impossible to do using only your thumbs, but I hear help is on the way, with genetic induced morf thumbs that allow holding a pencil with one's thumb! Bob
