What? We're not on there --

I have been joking that we were given an award by Bob for "best in class", but that he must have made up our own class just for us

Perhaps "Best Porsche Diesel" or maybe "Best Rear Engine"

No biggie though, we had a great time regardless, and I think our result was within a tick or two of Martin's, so I'm well pleased with that. I didn't know what to expect and I was just hoping for something over 60, so it's all good ---

I'm looking forward to doing another event like this, I wish we could do the Montreal run next month as that's only about 3 hrs from me, but I'm not able to get away from work at that time of year. Maybe we'll plan on the Albany area event in the Fall -- ?
