Attaboy Frank! We set a lap record (just kidding, not much competition!) at
Seattle International Raceway a few years back, after the Vintage Races were
done. Our fully loaded 84 7 Passenger GL smoked the 1985 Westy of Art
Stendel from Arizona! I completely screwed up Turns 3a and 3b, but nailed 4,
5 and 6 up the back of the track to show Art nothing but bike rack by turn
9. :)  In fairness, I have raced  that track a lot and Art hadn't, and the
downhill entry into 3 is WAY more scary from up in a Vanagon than down in a
race car! Buckle Up, Jake
