Glad to hear you're having such a good time and that you're being well looked after.

If you had time you could call in to see my agent in West Palm beach (Performance Power - http://www.performancepoweronline.com/home.html), who I'm sure would welcome your visit and also a potential agent while you're there.

You'd better also watch out for a big stupid one legged ARSEHOLE (owner of Tube cars), who races a rail bracket car down there, who bad mouthed my products all over the Internet, even though he'd never even seen them, never mind used them. I didn't have time to call on him when I was visiting last year, so he's long overdue a good kick in the nuts, should you feel so inclined. ;)

My Trip to Bradenton Raceway was a success for both myself and WON.
You already know I had to give up my WON shirt to one of the Race Marshalls, but I was also able to give out loads of business cards. There was a Specialist Mustang Tuning Magazine demonstrating one of their projects and professional videos were also being made. They were very interested in WON as were many other racers both professionals and "Grudge Racers" :D
The biggest compliment came from some bikers, who, once they made the WON and Cecil connection, couldn't get the cards from me quick enough.
On my last day in West Palm Beach, I went to Performance Power, the guys with the land speed record Ford GT. Thank god they are so far away, I could spend a fortune with them. They made me very welcome and gave me the run of the workshop. Here's some proof.
Had I NOT had to drive back to Tampa (for my flight home) I was offered a ride in the Ford GT, but had to make do with pose shots instead. Johnny has negociated with NASA to use their runway for some future testing and I was also invited to attend that, should it coincide with my next trip.
