    Favorite NG Memories

    I've been to every NG. Every one. And I wasn't the original organizer, so it's not because I had to. I can't say I've been to every car show. I used to beg Alan not to make me go. I hate car shows.

    As I'm trying to finish up the work for this year's NG, I'm reflecting on past years and I realized that people must have some amazing memories.

    Here's one that'll surprise those who were there. I actually REMEMBER the shopping cart races! Bridge and I were in the carts. I remember Terry was pushing one, but I can't remember who was pushing the other. Yeah, I know we could've been hurt, but we weren't, so it's all good to look back and laugh. I remember a wheelie chair that Josh brought that year, too. I was getting dragged around in some fashion (I think they were afraid I couldn't walk) and people were scrambling for a helmet! Don't you realize by now that there's nothing to hurt up there in that beaner of mine??? I can't believe I remember that stuff!

    I also remember Dr. Jack TRYING to break his car. He was always fun to watch. Yeah, I admit it.... I actually enjoyed that.

    There are tons more, but I thought I'd get the ball rolling. I'd love to hear yours.

    Oh geez. Two more... One was the road course in Memphis with the St. Jude's physician in his corvette. I could do without that one. Second... having Keith come to Memphis... Awesome.

    I LOVED the shopping cart races!!! How about my epic reverse 360 spin stopping on the center of the track facing the right direction?

    Paul "nutt'n" on everybody by tossing pistachios at them.

    Various people "yard sprawling" Saturday night (don't ask I will NOT mention names, you HAD to be there)

    I could go on all evening
