Now, now. We should focus on the things that bring us together, not the things that tear us apart. Such as the knowledge that the 2002 Sebring Silver with Black is by far the best version of the S2K ever made. We need to be positive and inclusive here. Except Covington is not Kent, you hear me?

I spent about 15 minutes on Jimmy Spencer's website - his fans are hilarious.

Here's one of my favorite posts:

My Sebring brother!!! The '02 Sebring/black is truly the best.

Even WRS2K drives one.

I have a friend who lives in Bothell. They have a really fancy house - but his wife won't acknowledge the fact that they live in Bothell.

She says they live in "North Kirkland"

One of the reasons Nascar is even looking to the NW is to get AWAY from being the redneck associated series. They realize the market on the West Coast is large and want to capitalize on it, so build it and they will come out, and things will slowly change.

The Legends Cars (3/4 scale oval cars that look like old hot rods) are running with conference at PR now, and I have talked to the drivers. They LOVE road racing as much as we do. I am pretty sure they will be a permanent fixture at the IRDC races, maybe do the whole Conference series next year. No doubt in my mind this will spread to the bigger cars as well. This weekend is a big race at PR, which is SCCA NWR regional, with a special Spec Miata run group, and a Nascar type Invitational. It should be great to watch, they are very fast.

I will be out there helping out a Miata racer. Anyone else going?

They would be racing for Jesus, with hopefully better results than Morgan Sheperd.
What a crock! Everybody knows Jesus is a Schumacher fan. How do you think he manages to win so many races? It's because Ferrari is headquartered so much closer to the Vatican than Chevrolet.

Dude! I grew up in "North Kirkland". Just down the hill and across 100th from where Russ and Beth live. We lived in the first housing development in the area, "Sun Village". Talk about your hopelessly optimistic names, eh?

Our address was Bothell but our phone number was Kirkland. Of course, back then Kirkland wasn't the hip and swanky WRS2K hangout it is today....

"Military Intelligence" > "Jumbo Shrimp" > "Sun Village"

hmmm... the Vatican... Germany... big $$$... sounds like a cross between a Ludlum novel and Godfather III

Schumy has got to have some divine intervention to get all those wins though...

Jim - you are "ahead of the curve" for sure.

wtf was that about anyway how much money did Renton spend on that slogan?

Ooh! Oww! Republican! Harsh words! I don't associate with those types. But then if I had to choose between that and Democrat, well... I'll take conservative with a strong libertarian bend.

Yeah, I wouldn't want to be an Asian in that crowd either.

Great find on the Jimmy Spencer site.

I'd love to catch some races at PR this weekend. Anyone else care to meet there?
