    A sincere thank you to Doug Cornett, Garry Hayes, Tom Beagle, Eric Johnston, Aaron Bagwell and my wife Gina, who all helped me tremendously throughout this season. Thank you for the good times and great laughs all season long. The racing wouldn't have been nearly the same without it all.

    Most specifically, I would like to thank my dad. Without his knowledge, technical know-how, ability to fix anything, and overall being the core of our race effort - I couldn't race without him. I've learned from his riding ability, racing accomplishments and competitive attitude from when I first started racing. He's one of the most humble and down to earth guys you could meet, which understates how smart he really is. He's a goof ball as well, which is a side some people don't always get to see.

    I try to thank him often - enough where he'll just say, "Stop, we're a team." I'm very fortunate to have the kind of dad I do and always appreciate what we have. From GLRRA to WERA to the AMA - he's always been there. And there isn't another team I'd rather be on.

    Thanks Dad.

    Yeah, thanks Joe for putting up with Eddie. Sometimes it is hard and other times tremendously gratifying I've seen. Good on ya mate. I'm also glad you guys can roll with my embarrassing conversations with Sammy. I can and do stick my foot in my mouth as you've seen. Let's race.

    Well said, Eddie. I don't know who is luckier, you or Joe.

    I'm havin' an Oban for Joe tonight. Oh wait, we drank it all at VIR. I'll have a martini then. Cheers!!

    Yes he did. Kevin Patmore thought of the name when he and a bunch of buddies did a Team Challenge event with GLRRA back in the day. Since then, the name stuck. :up:

    I know. I was giving him crap for saying YOUR team. I know you guys treat it like an actual team...not an individual thing
