      Thank You

      On behalf of Bill, Yancy and myself, we would like to thank everyone for making the event a success. The weather was perfect, Nathan and his crew were professional and very helpful, vendors/ sponsors were setup and willing to be of service, volunteers were willing to do whatever and you the participants were on your best behavior and kept everything running smoothly. Without each and everyone of you this would not have happened. Also thanks to Doug for the dinner at his place after the event. I hope he's feeling ok today ( he will know what this means and the others that were there...lol). We also congradulate Mr. Wright on his win on the Forgeline Wheels..this is exactly the type of person we like to see win..I don't think he quit shaking, but you could sure see the appreciation. Also a big congradulations to Brian Finch on being the 1st King of The Coast. Us east coast folks are getting very accustom to the Ca. weather and hospitality..you folks are the best and again thanks to everyone. And we hope to do it again and again and again..hell I just might move here.

      I had an awesome time at the event. I hope to be making progress real soon on my '77. It would be great to have it at this event. Otherwise it's my daily '00 Z28. Thanks a bunch to Bill, Yancy, and anyone else who helped put this together. It's going to be great to do it again.

      Doug, you and your wife were great hosts. Thanks for having us over. If I had stayed I might have tried to have an Elvis sighting myself.

      I'll echo all the sentiments.

      What a great even and find it difficult to fathom the effort to put it all together in such a short period of time. My hats off to all of you.

      We hope to bring a car next time. To race and not to sell. Well maybe race then sell after. LOL

      Good to see everyone again. Sorry, I didn't get to meet everyone.

      That is in discussion but we sure have it high on the list..We just need to work thru some logistics with the City of Irvine. We want to insure whomever wants to come...can. We do not want anyone turned around at the gate, which may have happened yesterday. Wherever it is held..it will be just as good if not better next time.I am sure Bill, Yancy or myself will post news for the next event as soon as possible...I personally would like to do it again in Nov of this year but thats just my input at this time.

      Awesome event guy's Thank you! We had a great time. Our personal goal was not to break the car the first time out and it survived. My cousin Jack built his 67 Camaro as a street car. Aside from the TCI suspension and wilwood brakes we were winging it and learning everything we could while there. We were taken back by how sorted out some of these cars are. It's definitely going to take some track days to get things sorted out.

      How about PIR in Phoenix or Firebird raceway for RTT Desert in fall of 2010?

      I'm in Scottsdale so I'd be willing to do some footwork on this if needed.

      Thanks again!

      I'm not sure but I think that RTTC is a HIT! What a great event guys and all who ran it were awesome. Us left coasters were happy to have such a well attented and run event. Bill, Yancy, Danny, and all the others (I forget names...sorry) that made this happen........THANK YOU.

      I second Willow Springs *cough* or Buttonwillow *cough*

      How about a rotating venue, one year Willow, then Buttonwillow, then PIR, or even Laguna Seca........

      It was nice to meet you Corey! Sorry about forgeting the wheels and tires at the shop. If Jack is going to Del Mar this weekend I'll have Sal bring them down.

      Sal drove home in 3rd gear because O/D was fail after the road course.

      Had a fantastic time and what a great event. Have to thank everyone that made it happen. I would also like to thank Doug(Dfresh) for putting Kelli and I up for the weekend. The party was a hoot. I hadn't laughed that hard in a while. Great group we have.

      Thanks for all your help with the suspension. The car was a lot of fun to drive. Contact Jack about the Del Mar show. I think he wanted to go but didn't have a spot. He may go with you guy's and run the car if you invite him.

      I think the car will be very competitive on the autocross.
