Just talked to Spank. He says he's going to find a motel and catch some Zs pretty soon.

I think a guy who has been awake for 36 straight hours can be forgiven for mixing up east and west.

Re: Bat-sChIT(ROËN)-Crazy?

Gentlemen, I think it's time we all chip in via Paypal and buy this man and his family a nice dinner.  Who's on board?  Epic stupidity like this it to be admired, nurtured and supported. I just wish my wife and family would allow me to be this irrational.  Hats off to you Mr. Spinelli, you have set the bar high and cemented your Lemons legacy regardless of the still potentially disastorous outcome of your foolish endevors.  Tonight I go to sleep in my warm bed while you drone on in zombie like fashion wondering if each mile will be your last.  Drive on my man, drive on!!!  May the wind be at your back. May all of your bolts be 10 mm and may the last miles be all downhill so that you may coast into a well deserved nights sleep. 

Guys alike Spinelli & Speedycop are the type of guys who built America. Talented, hard working and having just too darn much fun to know that its way past time to to quit.

Does anyone have Spinelli's email address so that we each pay a small Paypal token of our appreciation to a true Lemons racer?  Who's on board with me?

Remember, it's never too early to start embellishing the past.

You must have called him just after I got off the phone with him, Jeff. I told him if he needs recovery pretty much anywhere east of New Orleans I'd be happy to bring him back down and see that the car makes it to the track.
He was stopped at a border patrol check when I first called... I would have liked to have seen the agents' faces. big_smile

Maybe, but Ron too... and Ron has both a dually and some time on his hands!
