I didn't perform nearly as well as I hoped, I installed a set of 
Neuspeed/H&R race springs last week, but my toe is all messed up, I was 
pushing the front end around the track all day.  All the Sciroccos 
performed well, I think Don did exceptionally well his first time out. 
And I think he had fun to boot!  It's too bad Ben was broke, he didn't 
even get to ride.  Eric certainly looked like a pro, I was a bit worried 
when you pulled off after your launch, but I'm glad you got some decent 
runs in.  I talked to Jim Sr. in the orange Mk2, and convinced him to 
join the list, and he and his son are planning to attend Cincy next year.

I do have a bunch of video, I'll get it broken into clips and organized, 
and up on Google or YouTube as soon as I get some time.
