JUST FYI, our general channel this year is Channel 7 - no subcode or subcode 00.

See you guys this fall at the lodge.
Mine is as exciting as my first one.
On THAT note - I'd promised that I'd not push this car like I did the Graphite. BUT, leading Thorn and his son thru the Dragon on Sunday Morning sure blew that promise.......
