    Why bother? None of us know how to type.

    Glad you're in touch now since I've been forgetting to ask you this everytime I see you at the track. I have a site and am in desperate need of some racing/trackside photos. Would you know of anybody who might have some? I have a few pages of bikes but could always use more... even if they're of beemers.

    Kenneth, in the July 25th issue of Cycle News, pages 47&48 is Steve-O's Summit Point story. He writes, "Kenneth George, on the MTA-sponsored Suzuki, won the Vintage 5 battle over Stuart Lamont and Morrow".
    See ya at VIR. Mark Mitchell

    RZ Racer It passed tech LAST time!

    Kenneth, our coverage of vintage racing is 100% improved over what it was 2 years ago. In '99, we didn't even get coverage for the gnf!!!(see aaron stevenson) Steve O and Mark Mitchell are only human and have everyones best interests at heart. Congrats on your win, I think that makes us tied in mid-a points. I promise to bring the rz to vir...

    sorry guys didnt mean to bitch about the coverage. i guess i had flash backs of when i won three races at rockingham in the mid eights and the cyclenews covage headline for the artical were kurt hall only double winner of the weekend. seems i just never seemed to get noticed back then and got a little upset at the lack of coverage this time .im not faulting anybody . dont take it to harshly. just speaking my mind now .gee this forum stuffs great would have had to write a letter then and mail it. to much trouble. so dont think of me to badly for speaking up . mark and mark and every one else . try not to suck the stickers off the 550 when u go bye i hear the rzs a rocket . thanks again KGEORGE
