    One Lap of America is coming to TWS

    Monday, May 5th

    Begins at 8am

    Anyone up for a vacation day?

    John Oliver will be co-driving a vette this year. John is the guy who coached me and basically solved all my over-heating issues.

    Very cool. Wish I could but I'll be in Beaumont.
    So did this Mr. Oliver guy help you with your car too? :lol:

    They cancelled Lone Star Park because of the rain, but they ran TWS 2.9 CCW and 1.8 CCW in the downpour. All were well behaved. Martin got Tony Swan to autograph the latest Car and Driver and talked with us for a while. Nice guy, good sense of humor. Brock Yates, Jr. was a good guy with a slightly twisted sense of humor.
