Atlanta Historic Races--Spyderman
Well Skeeter (DC) and I braved the weather and had a good time at the Historics today. Met up with JW and watched qualifying and qualifying races. Highlight was seeing a guy in an older Lola open wheel racer pass a late model Indy Light car at turn 9 offline, in the sopping wet, on the inside twice at speeds that most light planes don't even reach. JW would know better than me, but that is a 140 mph or so corner for those guys. Big Big Cajones or however you spell BIG round ones!!
We also got to meet Spyderman who was burping up a storm from the beers he just had (after his races were over of course). He was squirting some ladies with a hose and trying to start a wet T-Shirt contest. What a riot!! I told him I missed jiving with him on DSCC, and he is complaining that he can't get onto DSCC boards here. Keith, what gives? Did you do something? He is an unbelieveable racer and holds the highest class HSRA license they have (see photo of it in Spyderman's hands). I must say he can hold things together on a car with racer duct tape that I would not have imagined. The guys in tech inspection start crying when he shows up. He runs the best low budget vintage setup I have seen. He just got a new sponsor (Durex Condoms of all things) and he has saved some money since selling the Pinto and was haggling to buy a vintage Cobra which I will post below this. I really hope he get's it, cause it will be a blast to have him as a member of DSCC, and then I can hang with his Pit Crew!! Go Spyderman, join the fray!!!
