True Story:
I went to the CART Michigan 500 race practice yesterday at Michigan International Speedway. As usual, I bought a pit pass and enjoyed watching the pit crews/drivers from pit lane. While watching Mario from Michael's pit I had an idea....
I had one of Frank Calmes Z06vette.com business cards in my wallet (thanks, Frank!) and I wrote a short note identifying the forum and inviting Mario to check it out.
Ok so far, but I did not want to pester Mario while he was clocking his son on the track, so I handed one of the mechanics the business card and kindly asked him to give it to Mario at a convenient time. The mechanic then approaches Mario and hands him the card, which Mario reads and puts in his pocket. Then Mario casually turns around and looks toward the people lined up behind the pit stanchions...I then gave him a big smile and the thumbs up sign. Mario smiles back at me and returns his attention to the track.
So we'll see what happens next.
