    I'll end with these 2 for now.. something a little different. Not a name you'd associate with speed in a everyday setting.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Wow, those engines are pure awesomeness! I may have to take a trip over there before they change it up too. Be a good excuse to get some parts too.

    That's all within the first 30 feet! There's lots more yet to see.

    I wish I had been around when these were racing each weekend!

    For me, it's always been bothersome that they were only open from 2-4pm M-F, but I had never heard the explanation before. Dave Severson mentioned that Bill was the same way at the track, if the people started coming into the pits to rub shoulders with the racers he would head to his Suburban to hide , especially if there were kids in the bunch. I guess he just didn't much care for the kids with their sticky hands, and tendency to climb

    The new format, with the entire collection displayed and open hours to allow several hours, or even a day plus to wander at my own speed fits my style much, much better. I expect that I'll wait for the announcement that the new space is open before I invest the three hour drive to Lincoln

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    The Wolf's Head motor oil sign caught my eye as that was the oil of choice when I was growing up in Ohio in the 50's

    What's the old saying, "Promises are cheap, Honor is priceless"... The lost art of honoring a promise is said to be blowing in the wind. I will do it. I promise, unless a gust of wind blows it out of the mind of commitment.....

    I'm saying that the new format, with open hours throughout the day, no tours, no one controlling pace or position, suits me much better than a two hour tour led by some doofus volunteer. When the time comes we'll see if it fits.
