I am evaluating the right suspension this morning while it is still up on trailer.

I must say all the locals were sympathetic, no sarcasm, I guess most of them have been in the same boat one time or another. Everyone was very helpful and several went out of they way to help me out. The Tennessee sheriff deputy was friendly and gave good advice, no ticket! So, hope to see everyone back at the Dragon next fall, but I won't be chasing Carl !
Steve,
I was so saddened to hear of your incident but relieved to know no injuries occured
I was told you really maintained your composure well after this occurred and even put a piece of the car on the "Tree of Shame"
Many of us would have cried if this happened to us.

As Mark also said :

"I heard not one critical word said about you from those in our group, not one sarcastic remark
You are one of few in the community here that are thought of by 100% of us as "one of the really good guys".


I fully agree with that and I hope you get your baby back on the road without to much expense
Please keep us posted here somewhere of the outcome and I enjoyed visiting with you this past weekend
My best to you and Jessie

Gary
