Honda Odyssey FrankenRaceVan, Where Are You?

[VroomGrrl]

Hey Jackie & all you Honda guys, we haven't heard from you on here in a while. Are you bringing the Frankenvan out to BRC this season?

[dr_phatcity]

I just PM'd them too. I'd like to see them continue to come out and play ... its an easy venue for them and quick publicity too

I so want them to came back out! With the Turbo/6speed version!

I do not think we will be there this week end but are planning on being at the first event with both vans. That is the plan for now and I hope we can run most if not all of the events this season. As all of you know this is a tough time for the auto industry and it has hit us hard also. We are not going to do the One lap of America this year because of the tough times. We have the cars and enough ( I hope ) tires that we can run with you guys this year and have to spend VERY little ( of our own )money. We just do not want to look like our race team is spending money when the plant is cutting back on everything else. So for our plans for now ( unless we are told no) are to come out on our own dime like everyone else and be with you guys. We REALLY had a good time in September when we came out.

P.S. Sean I can't wait until you see the orange van. There is a little more done to it that the red one.

Hey Paul! Great to hear from you! Is Jackie going to come out and do some driving? If so, tell him there's a certain Porsche driver who says BRING IT. Hahaha! No way I can beat that thing with Sean at the wheel, but maaaaaybe (if yall haven't sent Jackie to Skip Barber or something) I will have a fighting chance with another "novice" at the wheel. Just maybe!

OK OK I Kid.

Kind of.



We'll miss you this weekend but it's great to know you guys are planning on joining us for the rest of the season. See you soon!

I talked with Jackie last night and the first event he will not be able to make. We have Rodney,Jeromey and Chris that will drive the red car ( maybe Steve also) and Bradley and I will be in the orange car. We have been doing some training at the plant and are looking forward to getting back out with all of you guys.
