Re: How about Mike Ashley!

I've tried to Google the "Eric Blake Faulkner Foundation" and found nothing about the actual cause and what they hope to accomplish. Can someone shed some light on this subject for me please?

And congrats to Mike Ashley's group on the win.

Congrats to the whole team.....and everyone involved in the Foundation! It is all very touching.

Donnie and Holly....you are in my thoughts and prayers. I continue to think of you throughout your healing.

Re: How about Mike Ashley!

Thanks Ray. I missed that article when it first came out apparently.

As a father of two boys I can't even begin to imagine what Donnie and Holly must still be going through. Can't even begin to know. Truely a worthwhile cause to help those in a severe time of need.

Re: How about Mike Ashley!

Robert Hight's comments after the final hit home. To paraprase....he said roughly that there he was behind the tow vehicle and his daughter was waving and smiling at him. He said he couldn't imagine what the Faulkners were going through. I feel the same way. I was looking at my son while watching that.....I smiled, choked back a tear. Just then, he laid his head on my shoulder. It took my breath away.

Re: How about Mike Ashley!

Seeing Mike win was great for two reasons. One it is always cool to see a driver win the first time at Indy. Second reason that is great is the car will now hopefully sell for a larger amount when it comes to the Barrett Jackson auction in January.
