THANKS TO ALL OF YOU!

Thanksgiving Time--Each of us knows what we have to be thankful for in our lives. Family, friends and more.

Back in 1999, when Ken and I began running the club, neither of us knew what to expect. I knew how I wanted the magazine to look (still a work in progress) and we both had dreams of one day having a GASSER Reunion sequel to Barb & Greg's GASSER Gathering that they held in St. Louis in 1999.

In 2002, that dream was realized. Ken had met Thompson Dragway owner Bill Clemson the year before and made a hand-shake deal to host our GASSER Reunion in Ohio. A lot has happened since then. The event grew, through the wet and dry years, and will move next year to a bigger venue ~ Summit Motorsports Park in nearby Norwalk, Ohio.

The staff at Thompson became part of our extended family and many of them will be at Norwalk. It'll be a reunion for all of us. In addition, the club's founders, Barb & Greg, will be there as well. We've missed them and eagerly await their smiling faces. The GASSER Legends will be there signing autographs and talking to you about their early years in drag racing.

OK, time to have my second (or is it third?) cup of coffee.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
