Thank You to all of y'all that came out this weekend! It was great to see everyone again and the racing was awesome! We had a blast and hope all of you did too.
The banquet Saturday night was fun. Y'all know how to party! Congratulations to all of you for an outstanding 2006 season. You proved to the entire country that the Texas AI/CMC group is a force to be reckoned with. The video was great and a special thanks to David D. for my copy. I appreciate it.
Another special Thanks to Todd and Al for backing me up while Clifton was racing SM. I appreciate your wisdom and guidance. I couldn't have done it without you.
Hope to see everyone (and I mean everyone!!) next month at Cresson!
See ya soon!

PS- what did y'all think of the new medals? I'd like to hear your feedback on that as well as anything else from the weekend.
Adrian, If you hear from any of the other staff members that want a DVD, please have them contact me, I will be glad to get them a copy. I walked around and passed out a lot, but I'm sure I missed someone, and I'm sure not everyone was there.

or have them find me at MSR-C next month, I will bring extras for those that did not get them.

Hey David... I really appreciate my copy also. Great job producing them.

I'm not taking ANYTHING away from David's efforts. It was outstanding and I very much appreciate what he did.
But after being an editor for 25 years, I know first hand the countless, and I do mean a staggering number of hours Eric spent editing that piece together ... time NOT spent working on his car or with his family. And we see what happened to his car.
Think about it ... there was video footage from 5 or 6 cars and a couple trackside cameras. Each race had 20 minutes of footage times 5 cars time 4 races per weekend time 6 races. You do the math, but that is mountains of time spent just watching tape, not necessarily logging, cateloging, capturing, editing, sequencing, timing and, exporting a finished product. And then have Todd come back and say "Photoshop cat pics into it ..."
Most folks just don't realize the time and effort spent making something like that
I would think it would be a kind gesture for this group to ear mark a portion of the dues we gave to Chris and let Eric take his family out to dinner and a movie as a very special "thank you" for giving us this priceless, yet free, entertainment.
And I think Todd should go help him rebuild his motor.
I had tape from 22 races plus Nat's (that I submitted).
I'm in the biz.
I know what Eric did.
His contributions to TX CMC/AI continue to amaze and astound us all.
It's a toss up between he, TC and DD for the coveted title of
MR. CMC/AI!
I love you all. (you too RP & AG. oh and AF & GL and.... cue house band....)

Thanks guys. ops:
I don't know what to say other than later on through the ages we have something to look back upon and enjoy the memories.
Hopefully the video this year will be a cut above last years, but with the low car count I have my reservations.
Onward and upward.
Hope to see you all again soon.
Thanks JB, …EV deserves it.
I am happy to produce it, videos like this are great exposure for the series in general and the Texas Region.
