Just got my December issue of R&T.
There is a very nice article about Bill & Doug's excellent adventure in Lincoln.

Have to say Bill knows how to keep his sponsors happy. He gets his sponsors more exposure on a regional and national level than many Indy Car, ALMS or even Formula One teams.

Thanks, guys! It was an epic adventure, and I want to go back and give it another whirl as a co-driver in a street tire class of some sort. Bill gave me lots of great advice and tips...and a chance to drive "The Beast," of course! :mrgreen:
The Lincoln facility was amazing, and it helped that the grip was so similar to El Toro's. A first-class event through and through. I like how each driver has a bar-code helmet sticker and is scanned as he/she approaches the start.

I can certainly send you at least a couple more, Bill. I'll put 'em in the mail on Monday.

Bill I purchased the magazine after we talked on the phone 2 weeks ago at my local newsstand and saw the article layout (haven't read all of it). But as Darth Vader once said............"Impressive....MOST impressive". :)
