Well, I guess Gary can add another line to the accomplishments of the airplane and pilots of it. :)

Thanks for all of the kind words, y'all! I'm still enroute to Midland (should be back tomorrow), and will try to get all caught up and start being an active WIXer again. And yes, y'all will be among the first to see the post-race article I'm working on when I get it finished. ;-)

Gary, I think you ought to have the little racer on display at Midland next week. Don't care if it is not a warbird, it is still a great story and won't take up much room on the ramp.
