Joe --so do I... however I am inspired watching Mr. Newman smoke everyone in
GT1 at this past NARRC event. We kidded that his number on the side of his
Corvette (81) which reflects his age should perhaps have been changed to
81.5 to be more accurate.

With all this "Youth & Skill" and "Old Age & Treachery" in our class, where
does that leave us "Middle Aged & Confused" drivers ?
. . . unfortunately, I know the answer in my case.

Eric - Thanks for the warning but I must tell you there is another young
lady ( I think she is 16 or 17 ) that is also fearless and fast. Her name
is Katherine Lapham and is a member of the NY region so I am sure she will
be meeting Ms Libecco at some point in National races next season. I have
had the pleasure? of being smoked by her in two separate regionals so far.
If she learns to keep the car on the pavement she will be a dominant
force. Perhaps I can use our 48 year difference in ages as an excuse.

Warning! There's a new rookie moving up to National racing next year,
after
just finishing her 6 races (2 schools+2+4) to qualify for a national
license. I've had the pleasure (and pain) of racing with this racer for
my
last four races at Nelson Ledges. Why the warning? Well she is fast,
talented, and fearless all the while quiet and unassuming, but don't let
her
cute smile and friendly manner fool you, she is serious and determined.
On
a cold and damp day, October 21, she posted a 1:10.269! That's only
1.871
off the NL's track record set by Doug Marsh in May of 2004.
Who is this mystery racer? Well she comes from good stock. Her brother
is
also a very talented driver and her father is fastidious about car set
up.
She is also very a friendly and nice person, just like her brother and
father. Welcome Christina Libecco to F500.
I for one am glad she is moving up to National level racing and leaving
the
region stuff to old guys like me. Good luck, Christina. And the next time
I
wave, it's because I'm cheering for you.
