Gene - keep up the enthusiasm! Hopefully we'll get to run against you, Sean, and the other NorPac newbies at the Runoffs in the coming years. Cory

And, though I was entered in six races this year (and made it to four), my numbers don't show up because I'm still on a Novice License (I'm doing 6 races then upgrade directly to a National.) It takes some time for us noobs to get that National! I hope to be able to run my first National at Rose Cup next June. I expect Sean will be getting his National at about the same time - it all depends on when Regionals are scheduled and how that works into my schedule as Wife.gov has a lot to say about my racing weekends. My car will be out on the track, but I don't matter - YET.
