[hey,littlecobra]

I'll give it a try.....

Since ERA291 is so active here...what was the very first car show and award that Gary won when he owned the car?
Yellow Rose, I guess, but only because i think every time he enters Yellow Rose he wins.
How did Gary, Jay and Tom get together for the first time?
sorting out the electrical wire colors on Gary's car. You know, since he's color blind..... (actually, you and Tom did a lot of work together, and Gary needed something done, don't know/remember what)
What car did Gary name the Christmas Tree, make and model?
dunno!

What year does Lightning, pizza, trailer and duct tape come into play here?
'00? assuming it was when ya'll were eating pizza, inside the Lightning F150, NOT PAYING ATTENTION, and when he backed the Cobra out of the trailer he caught the bottom of the oil cooler on the ramp of the trailer. Duct tape held it together?? (dunno )
Hint, we met Clay Fugate the year after but also met the present TCC club president in the same year.
Paul Cass. know that one!
It is amazing that with all of the dying brain cells I can remember these things.
