John,

Best of luck with the event. Fuel Altereds at BAKERSFIELD,,,now how cool is that! John's events just keep getting better.

If you attend this race, be sure to go to the Chuy's joint and have dinner. It is great food. Heck, tell them Rapid sent ya,,,they won't know who you mean, but tell them anyway like it "Should" mean something.

Hmmm.... I don't know, I don't want to get thrown out of the place.

Last year before the race I stopped in and had the mahi-mahi tacos.
What should I have this year?

A bunch of guys were ordering Tri-tip,,,whatever that is. They liked it.

I went with a cheesebuger deal that was GREAT!

PS, If the Rapid deal doesn't work out too good,,,,use John's name. He is a local hero.
