Topic: Reno at-track information

Hey, Erik --- We never said you were a bad person!  (Now, I'm not including Matt in that statement... nor am I including the many comments about your driving, or your poetry, or your ability to comprehend spreadsheets.)  big_smile

BTW -- as previously stated, the Lemons Fire Department will have chili, onions & cheese available for a nominal donation to the Santa Clara Medical Burn Center.  BYOBeer and you've got a well-balanced, high-carb, low-fat meal.  tongue

Just about one week to go!

All the best -
