Mark and I don't get the credit. There's a thousand people working behind the scenes. Many are starting to see the great racing we did. This is just the beginning. There are many fun years to come. I'm just thankful we met Gary Lee that freezing day. I thought he was a professor. Little did we know he would jumpstart our favorite form of racing.

Jen, don't look now, but I have a "possible" for another sponsor, for some contingency products, like some GoooooD BBQ, I should have some more info later next week. Hope we can get him on board, he's already made one trip last Fall, to see our racing program. Bob

In additional to beginning the richest season in the history of Indiana TQ racing, it will also mark the debut of the Vincennes University race car. Defending MTQRL Champion, Tate Martz, will wheel the white, blue and yellow number one. The car is owned by former racer, Roger Ramsey, and will feature graphics designed by Vincennes Univerisity graphic arts student, Craig Karcher. Vincennes University is Indiana's first college, dating back to 1801 and is the first school of higher learning to be a title sponsor of an Indiana racing series.

I was just sitting here looking at all the great sponsors the MTQRL has picked up and got to thinking. Vincennes University in the town of Vincennes, Indiana has been with the MTQRL from the beginning.

This will be my first year fielding a car with MTQRL and I'm so happy to see the University backing the series. The town has a very special meaning to me and my life. I lost a good friend on March 6,1969 in Viet Nam when 2Lt. William Dennis McAllister was killed. Lt. McAllister was from Vincennes, Indiana. I passed through Vincennes a few weeks ago and I thought about the Lt. It looks like a great little town and I know it had special meaning to a good friend.

Just rambling. I know this has nothing to do with anything much but just thought I'd post.
