Tom, I got your e-mail but when I tried to send a reply I got an error (reason: 552 Requested mail action aborted: exceeded storage allocation)
Looks like your mailbox is full. This is the first time I have had a chance to get on-line since Tuesday, its been "one of those weeks". If you are going to be around a little longer give me a page at (225) 322-6329 and I will call you back. I don't know if I will be around the house tomorrow, but we always have my wifes cell phone with us. ------------------

Alex...the "Brick" ? Bret Veldes M/SA Mustang? Lotsa Fords i've never seen at Orlando. Yeah thanks to a few dozen 150K jokes someone sent my e-mail was plugged and i couldn't access it for a few days. I was at State Capitol on Friday and No Problem Raceway on Saturday... if Ronnie is like the rest of the folks i met down there he ain't half bad! Canajun Tom

hmmmm i didn't notice... i did see lotsa bricks with names tho. I guess i was looking more inside the buildings than outside... lotsa 427 SOHCammers in there, some real historic stuff No Problem Raceway is nice, very smooth, seems like a nice place to race. AJ there is from State Capitol. The race last weekend was just for cars in Stock , Super Stock and the 8.90 and 9.90 and 10.90 classes. There were a few test and tune cars also. Rusty Hall won Stock in his brothers 68 CJ Mustang other than that it was mainly Mopars and Chivverlays.
