Al.
Let me publicly say, Congrats on your win of the EVO/WRX class. Good job and you deserved it. You have a very strong running car. I appologize for omitting your win and did not mean anything negative towards you or anyone else. I would never intentionally be negative towards someone, especially a customer and if I have offended you in some way, I do appologize. About my snafu, it was indeed my own fault that I did not hear the announcement about the class. As I said before there was never a drivers meeting to explain how they wanted us to race. If there was an announcement made, I did not hear it. My fault. Once again I do appoligize for the omittion and Congrats.

Maybe in my next magazine article I will ommit reference of your parts ?? I did not even get or ask for anything for free from you guys - I paid for it all. It bothers me to see a compnay who I have plug in my magzine articles skip over me when talking about an event that I won. A lot of hard work and sweat goes into this racing effort and its nice to revieve credit when you win. I can not believe that you would ask me to put your stickers on my car and then diss me by giving props to all the guys who lost the race.

I'll call Harry about this on Monday to see if this addiude about me is reflected in the rest of the comapny - which would be a great disappointment for me.


BTW - as for your complaint about the race - the announcer clearly said "IF YOU WIN YOUR ROUND IN ELIMINATIONS OR WRX vs. EVO COME RIGHT BACK TO THE STAGING LANES" Maybe you were not listening - BUT - that is what was said - CLEARLY - I heard it. I dont know why you would stop for your time slip - you could always get it at the end of the day. I dont think you should blame the track - it seems to me like your mistake.

At the risk of starting a flame fest, I'll say this.. The event could have better organized.

Patrick may have missed the announcement because we waited quite awhile to get our timeslips.

I'm sure it will be better next year.

Actually this statement is false, my friend J.D. (John Duarte) ran 10.98 @ 121 on stock RX7's twins (True Stock Turbos, unlike Curt Brown who has modified the stock turbo, but it's not really and truly a stock turbo.)

Still a mighty nice achievement for Curt Brown cause he drives the car to the numbers

Well I know I've read in the past that his stock turbo was ported and clipped... but the closest I could find from Curt Brown's mouth was this

"Stock wastegate,stock trans, ported stock turbo, Tial BOV, and never used nitrous on any turbo car.."

I'd also like to add that car was pretty much daily driven, and still is. (I used to own an FD, and my good friend owns a heavily modded one as well)
