    I did all mine in person. Of course, I started back in Spetember so that by November I'm done. I still go out on Christmas Eve and watch people melt down. It's fun to watch people's heads explode.

    True, but that's where Mario might be a better influence. Michael traded on his last name too much without really backing it up on the track.

    Very few Rednecks.
    Drivers who can string together a sentence during an interview that resembles English even if English isn't their native tongue.

    I'd love to go and catch some of the Western tracks but I refuse to get into another commercial aircraft. I can drive to Mid Ohio or Road America, the Drive to SLC would be a bit much I fear. :)
