Why don't we meet up Sunday at the Matco hospitality area. Whit has arranged for Hip to be his guest for the day. My wife and I will also be at the race Sunday.

Alan, I guess I missed it somewhere, or did Hip/Roger plan to keep his cool guest visit with Whit and the Matco Tools team a secret? That is great. Pretty nice of Whit to invite Roger to their hospitality area. I want to see some pics! Wish I could go.

Congrats Hip! That's way cool......we expect a full report!

LMAO......Roger's gonna be a bigger draw at their hospitality than Whit!

Seriously though, Kudos to Whit for making this happen. I just need to know when on Sunday so I can finally meet Roger face to face.

Roger, if you're listening (reading).......how 'bout a little help here?

 

[JRX]

Very cool Hip.....have a blast! Huge props to Whit!

 

[Gilles]

LMAO @ David!

Jerry, where have you been?

Hey Kelly. I've been around. I've been pretty busy since the end of May, and don't get on the puter much anymore, but I still check in once in a while.

Well.... I just got a bunch of tix for Sunday and Monday, so I guess I'll be there both days. Not sure I'll use all I have (4 for each day). I actually don't have them in my possession YET, but I guess they are "hospitality" tickets? (shrug)

 

[PJ]

see ya there Jerry,

just remember to get off the loop

I say move Sunday's Mater Meeting to Whit's pit. I'm sure he won't mind.

 

[Gilles]

Hey Jerry, sit near us so we can stand up in front of you!

Sounds like a plan!

I don't think Shoe would allow us maters in Whit's pits.......

 

[Kelly]

Sure he would!

I know Roger is too humble to reply....just know that we are happy for you 'hippo'. You will never forget it, that's for sure!

 

[nitro-trucker]

hey I wear a gray visor that say nitormater in red on it to every race I go to. If you see me say Hi

Hope to be there Fri. to Mon. I have about 30 key lanyards hanging from my belt If ya c me say hi

 

[nitro-trucker]

PJ, I figured PSB and cars would be the sacrificial lambs. The Fuel cars, Pro mods and Alky cars people won't miss for Mater meetings.

I ain't missing prostock for nothing, but will try to make some meetings

Same from me Hip! Have a FANtastic time. Hope your pal Arnie Beswick is around too. Saw where he is back in action again.

Hey Hip, I really miss your Whit avatar. We need to help you get it back on your posts or maybe come up with a new one....but it will be hard to top that animated one you have.

Can't wait to hear about your INDY experience. Ya'll write back now, ya hear!

Folks, I've got a lot to say but it's all coming so fast that I want to gather all of my thoughts before I let my mouth overload my a**. With a lot of things still way up in the air I'd rather let it all shake out a little bit before I offer my $.02.
I do want to acknowledge this much though, I truly appreciate what Whit has done but the man behind it all is Alan Barrett. The man must have a heart of gold & he's making Indy for the first time. I know from being there many times before that he won't be disappointed. I can't wait to meet him & all the other Maters who'll be there.
Much more later 'cause I've got a lot of thoughts runnin' around this head of mine.............."HIP"

It was great meeting folks face to face. Unfortunately I didn't get to Bottle's or Joker's pits. Congrats to Bottle and the Titan Motorsports team for their win.
