Topic: Thanks so much everyone, from the King Henry V8th Purple Caddy
Our team of idio... I mean: seasoned endurance race professionals would like to thank everyone profusely for being such good sports last weekend! We had a great time, and everyone was incredibly gracious and helpful, even when confronted with both our unbelievable ignorance and our slow-as-hell ass-end taking up most of the track!
We're not entirely sure if we got the IoE because the judges took pity on us, or because they're hoping we'll consider that win "good enough" and never bother to bring that hulking monstrosity back to a Lemons race again, but all of us have spent the last few days with ridiculous grins on our faces, and we've become insufferable to everyone we know. I suspect you haven't seen the last of the King, although next time we just might get a mechanic on board.
Extra-special thanks to Anton and Spank who kept checking on us (probably expecting to find we'd lost a limb or two in the fan-belt) and to the Pussy Wagen folks for being so encouraging, even when we spent half the race in their way!
Oh, and don't think we didn't notice that toward the end there some of you better drivers started using us as a choke-point.
Thanks for an amazing weekend, and apparently the start of a ludicrous addiction.
Team King Henry V8th, aka the Purple Roadblock
