Nor do you need to wait until you are all most 50 or  average 140 mph in your first ORR like the DAWG while he ran stock campy wheels and a stock 4.22 ring gear and no fancy schmantzy 5th gears....nor do you need to complete more then 40 ORR's OR just one before you did but also don't wait another 15 years...
   
  No one gets out alive.

You've been to Iraq or Iran or whatever that place is (political rant 
deleted) and can't make it to the next state?

I recommend you experience one of these once - you don't have to be 
dawg nutz (canine crazy, not doggie danglers) and compete in every 
event for 29 years.

They are fun, you'd love it!

best,
David

ps, you car is beautiful - aren't you glad you stuck it out? (ok, 
larry, here you go)
