Thanks Jerry, yes it is a great event and the biggest on the MIR schedule. It would be great to get some more VWs in the racing and the car show.

I had a great time this past weekend.  ALL the workers at MIR worked there butts off this weekend.  We understood that we had to back out and not run elims, just did'nt understand why we were even called to the lanes.  We were packed up and ready to go home. Thanks to Jason Miller and crew for another incredibly insane event! We held our own with 42 cars trying to make a 16 car field.  Rob fell in somewhere around 19 so both VW's put on one hell of a show, imo!
