Pre-decals.
1107 arrived right on time exactly one day late Saturday at 7 a.m. We had a great security escort and Richard drove it through the front doors of the Palais des congrès de Montréal and, at my encouragement, revved the engine and rattled every window within 50 yards.
I also encouraged him to do some donuts and race up and down the conference center block-long foyer a few times, but he didn’t take me up on that.
I spent the morning applying all our sponsor and contingency decals and we played “Dust to Glory” on the laptop while Richard talked to early arrivals, some of whom recognized us as the official World Diabetes Day race car.
Ran errands in the afternoon and worked on Baja 1000 planning.
Here’s the car all blinged out. If you’re at the conference, drop by and say hi to Richard and me (he’s the good looking one). We’re conveniently located right next to the coffee shop across from main registration.
It’s a great “10 foot” car.
