nape - thanx for confirmation on this.

I've been involved with and crew'd for several Speed World Challange teams since '03, both in GT and TC, and it has been an interesting ride, so far. Chip Herr in the Audis and the Focus, Tom Oates and his tiger stripped Corvettes, Jim Osborn in his BMW and then the GTO and Stu Hayner and his GTO, as well as the immediate help provided to other teams throughout the season. It 's like one big happy family, even amongst competitors.

I've know Chris, the car builder that built all of Tom Oates' cars, even before he got into the SWC, and has been with AutoSports Development since the beginning of last season and built the second generation GTOs for Stu Hayner and Jim Osborn. I've been fortunite enough to be able to spend numerous hours (days) in the shop with Chris assisting with the building of several of these cars, as well as customers cars and it has been very rewarding as well as informative.

That's my little trip around the block.

No problem. That's definitely cool to be able to crew for all those teams.

I'm going to try to do something similar this year but hopefully I'll be crewing almost every weekend for a buddy that runs dirt late models. Hopefully I'll get my first look at Eldora (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
