Agreed!  Huzzahs to you both -- well deserved!

Actually, it was 16/100ths of a Minute (a bit more than 9 seconds), but, over eight hours and >160 Miles, that's still pretty damn close.  The guy who won had 9 points I think (<6 seconds off for the day)
Kudos to Paul for his fine driving skills and willingness to put his car at risk in the wilds of NH.
