Gary won a National Event in his Fuelish Pleasure Funny Car so that would be a yes to your question about a license. I have a pretty good guess about who would be driving Paul's car but I am not going to give it away. E |

Hey Tony,
Are the Zizzos going to run at all this year. I had a chance to chat with TJ at indy sat night, he is a class act. Shame not to have them racing in some shape or form. |

I'd say no. She last raced in TF a few years ago. |

Unfortunately I saw T.J. today, as I had my Z28 towed to the shop today after stuffing it into a guardrail this morning.
Right now things are still up in the air with us racing this season. As of now it sounds like maybe 5 or 6 races. |

Hey Dave, Mike competed all of 2001 in the NY Yankees TF. I don't think it's him although I would sure like to see him out there.

Re: Paul Smith
Yeah I'm ok, my shoulder and neck are a bit sore, but it could've been a lot worse. Thanks for asking.
Mike, I was going east bound on I80 and were you go downhill and a slight jog to the right before you go over the Des Plaines river bridge(Exit for RT66 is right after the bridge). I had to have hit some black ice, because the rear end just all of sudden came around on me. The scariest thing when I was sliding toward the bridge's guardrail, because you know what's on the otherside...a long drop and a lot of water.
It tagged the passenger side front and the passenger side rear quarter pretty good. It pushed the front over an inch and with it being a t-top car, T.J. said it would probably be totaled.

Re: Paul Smith
Tony, very happy you are OK.
Being a Camaro enthusiast, I too have learned that they don't mix with cold or winter weather.
Take care!
Wayne
