Yo, Bob!!!!  Been there done that er whaaaaat?????  I haven't been at such
speed on a track since Showroom Stock days, and all this with a stereo and no
roll cage......  STEADIRIC, Robert Phillips and Graydon Stuckey have all been
to one or more of these events too, and we're wondering what you missed out
east there.......   Let me check my notes, rustle rustle, 134 on the straight
2 years ago at grattan, only 125 this year........   120 on the straight at
rockford, and lap times that rivaled my SS GLH Turbo to boot.......  Not sure
my HP was ever put to more use or fun than at one of these schools......
 Haven't seen a report on any of em that says it was a bore......  STEADIRIC
(eric) is one of the Skippy turned 4ring-toss instructors, and I assure you
that boring speeds are nowhere in his lesson plan (in FACT, well there was
this turn......)  ........  

Even as an ex-Prorally/SS/Solo racer, I can't say that the QCUSA events come
close to  a ho-hum experience, for the advanced or novice to track
time.......   Learning the limits of the quattros should be encouraged and is
at these events.......   No flames, always smoke tho.......... <:~)
