Hey Fellas, remember me!?

I've been outta the loop for a little while but have been starting to get myself back on top of my car in the interest in going racing again next year.

Just thought I'd stop in to the ole HADA website and see what the boyz have been doing since I left?

Ran into Hanif in late October and got to thinking that I should get back involved with the HADA peeps!

While I've been away, I've taken up another motorsport related hobby. If any of you racers out there are looking to get a helmet airbrushed, I can hook a brotha (or sista) up.

Anyway, hope to see y'all next year at the track and MAYBE the HADA karting series......if you want me back! ;)

See you at the track!!

Cheers

Hey Rob -- good to hear you're still alive and kickin'! How's Rich doing?

Got any photos of helmets you've painted? If so, post em up!

Hey Maxi

Yeah I'm alive and kickin alright, just had to lay off the racing for a while to take care of the wife and little one. Now the little one is 2! Time flies!

Rich is doing well. He won the 2007 Ontario Championship in the F1K karting class and was a member of the Ron Fellows / Sunoco Ultra 94 team and did the Bridgestone race school series too. This past season he ran DD2 (rotax 2 spd shifter) and was ranked #1 in Ontario by ekartingnews.ca (even though he finished the championship in 4th or 5th.)

As for helmets.....here are a few.

Dood, you've got some skillz with the airbrush! I'll definitely be in touch in the spring to get you to paint one of my helmets. I've got a very simple old skool inspired design in mind, so it should be pretty simple for you.

AWWW Shucks Dave....Thanks :o Drop me a line at retrocrx@rogers.com whenever you are ready. Bear in mind it takes about a month to get one of these done as I have a full time job and a 2 year old to deal with!!

:D
