Bjoern-the-Viking King.
 
Again I have to congratulate and salute you, and Bud, and Polly and all most another 100 Norwegian supporters for flying all the way from Norway to support Polly's run or in Buds case driving RT from Kansas.  
 
The fact that you fly out twice a year to run the NORC and Silver State speaks volumes for either the event or the parties we have....and don't call it a race or the REAL racers will get 
upset. ;-]>

Hi Dawg,
Thanks for that. The race weekend was great fun.
Yes, we were close to 100 Vikings up in Ely. Sorry you missed the parties...
We were very glad that Stan and his navigator made it ok. Hopefully the
Mustang can be replaced.
I heard that they both actually walked from the car/wreck...
PS! Have sent you a private mail as well.
Cheers Bjoern
