          On the Day 3 results, he's shown in blue at the bottom of the page, with zeros for Amarillo........not a good sign.......
          No time slip turned in for Amarillo I guess - not sure why.

                      Yes it does...Bob said he finished 12th with a 11.81 dial in. The '56 was running under @ 11.70 so had a good chance of winning if he didn't break out. He should have made a few rounds at least.

                      Sounds like he had fun and that is what really counts. Can't wait to hear everybodies "stories".

                        We had great VIP spots at the base of the tower. We were invited into the tower but chose to stay down by the strip. Thought the view was better.

                            This looks like a great adventure! It was very nice to hang out with Jim and Maureen, Phil, Ed and Mary, as well as meeting some new friends. Thank you Bob and Allen for letting us hang out, I always look forward to the stories and conversations.
