The smileys are a reference to an old friend that the entire team misses greatly.

Fwiw, it was a good weekend for the team overall; despite getting caught out on qaulifying a bit. Ray Mason was driving for qaulifying and as soon as he got himself out in the open to run some fast laps, another driver crashed and ended the session. We ended up starting in 24th and finishing 4th, which earned the team the "Bernheim Improve your Position" Award, also known as the "Hard-Charger" award, for moving up more positions than anyone else.
We really did have a good race; Ray Mason was on fire in the early part of the race, picking off positions left and right, and staying away from getting hit in the process. Ray was actually as high as 2nd IIRC when he came in to the pits. Adam Pecorari was the second driver this weekend, and he continued what Ray had started, but he was running out of positions to pick up . . . He made it back up to 4th, and that's where we finished. Huge props to both drivers for doing a great job in some tough conditions. 3 Rivers is brutal on brakes, and both drivers kept the brakes alive through the whole race. Tires also were taking a beating; before Ray came into the pits, you could tell the tires were on thier way out, because he was having to work a lot harder to keep the car fast and stay on the track. When he came in, we changed all 4 tires, put in a full tank of gas, and put Adam in behind the wheel. Fwiw, we are going to try to get a copy of the canadian broadcast of the race, and I'm hoping they got good film of the stop, because it was a pretty darn good stop
If I can get a hold of the tape, I'll try to post any good snippets of video.
