[ba] FW: STOLEN!!! racecar and trailer

[Buchholz, Steven]

I am forwarding a message I got from Ted Fisher relating to a stolen
racecar.  It appears that the theft took place in Minnesota, and I know that
I saw a lot of familiar names on the distribution, so I figure a few folks
already know about it.  Even though the car was in MN, I suppose it could
have been moved elsewhere, so it is good to get as much of a blanket of
coverage as possible.
