Romance - a day at the track

What a busy week - Here we come off of a great race weekend at Mosport( the local track) and we have some personal track time too. First off - A BIG THANK YOU to Black Dog Racing, Tony Gaples the driver - they helped me raise some money for the local children's hospital's cancer unit www.rallyforkids.com - please sponsor ME. Next we have an AMAZING time at the BRIDGESTONE RACING ACADEMY with their new Van Diemen race cars - WOW - what a thrill. Unlike other schools they let you push the car...they let you learn about real racing not just lapping. www.race2000.com.

Tonight though was the grand openign of the local Ferrai dealership. WHile I did NOT wion the lottery the night before that was a measley 45 million - hence I couldn;t really SHOP there. BUT....never-the-less it was an impressive building - impressive group and of course - IMPRESSIVE CARS. While there I thought about the people I have been honored to meet in regards to racing.....love to hear your stories! Let me give you a few people - Paul Newman, Guiseppe Risi.....Mario Andretti....JANET GUTHRIE...I'll write about WHY and HOW I think them worthy of my GREAT PEOPLE IN RACING
