Rob Lupella is HOTM. He is always helping the novices at every event and put a lot of effort and coordinated the logistics of the successful Novice School a few weekends ago.

Thanks Rob!

VK still has the Heel which should be back in the Triangle this weekend. I'll give it to Matt McGrain to garnish and then to Rob. I have high hopes for the decorations from these 3 :).

I'm tempeted to post a pic of my addition, but it would spoil the fun. Let's just say it doesn't involve LEDs, diamond plate, or chrome.

Oh yeah, congrats Rob!

Way to go Rob. you = the man :thumbsup:

Hats off to a guy that is never afraid to jump in a car with a compete stranger (time & time again) to help them get hooked on a new hobby and help the THSCC program grow.

Thanks James, naturally I have a little bit of Integra paraphernalia to spruce up the heel.

I was thinking just spraying the heel with some old, black oil would be acceptable :).

Thank you all. I'm sure I can find appropriate CorvMiata (MiataVette?) decorations.

I have recovered from the evil oyster and will live to instruct another day
